In most instances people have no problem keeping their car or home when they file a bankruptcy. From the sounds of things, for you to keep your car and your home will have to continue to make the associated payments, but will potentially be able to deal with all the other debts with out impacting these contracts.

As there is substantial differences in treatment of assets between provinces it is important to contact a licensed trustee in your area and they will be able to provide details as to the best way to approach this situation based on the applicable provincial legislation.
