It is possible to start a proceeding in the Provincial Court to deal with things like child support and then start a proceeding in the Supreme Court to get a divorce and deal with things like property. However it can confusing to manage two court proceedings, and you have to be careful not to bring up issues in one court that are being dealt with by the other court.

The Provincial Court is usually the most accessible court for people who aren't represented by a lawyer. The rules which govern the court's process are written in easy-to-understand language, the court doesn't charge any filing fees, and most people who use the Provincial Court don't have a lawyer. There are also a lot more courthouses across the province for the Provincial Court than there are for the Supreme Court.
