I am currently married and living in the Caribbean with my new husband. I have one child 13 yr old and my ex husband is looking after him fill time in Ontario.

My ex husband is asking for child support (even though I send money for him thru his grandmother and she buys accordingly for him). I work part time and make $32,000 a yr. I can afford to pay the 260. Which is required of me. My question is can my ex husband demand that my new husband pay more according to his salary?
