A.Dear client,
If the spouse is residing in any other foreign country, then they can seek divorce by mutual consent under the country's divorce laws related to foreign marriages. The Indian legal system will recognize the divorce only if it is with the consent of both the parties. You might have to contact the Canadian embassy and convey your stand on the case.
If you don't want a divorce, then contact a lawyer to contest in the matter.
