A child protection application concerning two children, S. and J., brought by Chatham-Kent Children's Services.
The Society alleged that the children were in need of protection due to physical and emotional abuse, inappropriate discipline, and inadequate care by their mother and stepfather.
The trial addressed grounds for protection, supervision of access, and whether ongoing protection orders were necessary.
The court found that S. was in need of protection and made her a Crown ward with supervised access to her mother.
The court found that J. was in need of protection in 2007-2008 but that no ongoing protection order was warranted, and he remained in his mother's care without supervision.
