This trial decision addresses custody, access, and child support for a three-year-old child.
Sole custody was granted to the respondent mother by agreement.
The court assessed the applicant father's parenting abilities, noting significant concerns regarding his judgment, living conditions, and inconsistent commitment to the child, particularly in light of his new relationship and the apprehension of his other child by child protective services.
The court ordered initial supervised access, transitioning to unsupervised access at the respondent's discretion, subject to strict conditions including a CAS inspection of the applicant's residence and prohibitions on leaving the child with the applicant's partner or transporting the child unsafely.
Child support was ordered in accordance with the Ontario Child Support Guidelines.
