The applicants sought to declare Capucine Loyer incapable and be appointed as her joint guardians for property and personal care.
They also sought prospective appointment of substitute guardians (Stéphane Loyer and Martine Lepage).
The Public Guardian and Trustee (PGT) objected to the prospective appointment as a matter of law.
The court found Capucine Loyer incapable and appointed the applicants as joint guardians.
However, the court dismissed the request for prospective appointment of substitute guardians, holding that the Substitute Decisions Act, 1992, does not permit such appointments, emphasizing the need for ongoing judicial oversight and protection of the incapable person's rights under the Act and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
