The ambiguity of the legal situation of de facto spouses in Quebec resurfaced in Éric v. Lola at a time when marriage is losing popularity among young Quebec couples. Thus, they exclude themselves from the legal protections offered without having recourse to a cohabitation contract. Under the premise that the absence of a term to this commitment is responsible for the disinterest of young couples, would it be more attractive to allow young couples to marry for a fixed term? This brief proposes the creation of term marriage by adding a cause of marriage breakdown. Thus, the arrival of the term would offer a choice between three options: divorce according to the provisions previously established in the marriage contract, the renewal of the marriage contract for a fixed term, or the loss of the benefit of the term through the inaction of the spouses.
