The children's aid society sought a temporary care order for three children following an incident where the 10-year-old child was found in a vehicle with illegal drugs, weapons, and two adults who had been residing in the mother's home.
The mother sought the return of all three children.
The court found that the mother and the father of the two younger children shared 'charge' of those children prior to the intervention.
The court concluded there was a reasonable basis to believe the children would likely suffer actual harm if returned to the mother due to her poor judgment and exposure of the children to the drug trade.
The court ordered the oldest child to remain in the society's care and the two younger children to remain in the care of their father, subject to society supervision.
