The Catholic Children's Aid Society brought a motion for summary judgment seeking a finding that a child was in need of protection under the Child and Family Services Act and a disposition of Crown Wardship with no access order.
The respondent mother opposed the motion, arguing that material issues of fact required a trial.
The court found that the undisputed evidence established that the child was in need of protection due to the mother's significant mental illness and its impact on her parenting ability.
The court granted the motion for summary judgment, finding no genuine issue for trial on either the finding or disposition, and ordered Crown Wardship with no access.
