The applicant father brought a motion for temporary shared parenting and overnight access to the parties' three children.
The respondent mother opposed the relief, citing concerns about the father's history of substance abuse and seeking to maintain the status quo where the children primarily resided with her.
The court declined to order temporary shared custody due to conflicting affidavit evidence, ordering that the children continue to primarily reside with the mother pending a section 30 assessment.
The court granted the mother exclusive possession of the matrimonial home and ordered the father to undergo bi-weekly urine testing and a hair follicle test as a precondition to commencing overnight parenting time.
