This motion concerned a dispute over the temporary residence of four children following parental separation.
The Applicant mother sought to vary a temporary order to allow the children to move from Dorion to Sudbury, where she had recently relocated.
The Respondent father opposed this move and sought to keep the children in Dorion.
The court, considering the best interests of the children and the principle of maintaining the status quo, ordered that the children remain in the matrimonial home in Dorion, with parents rotating in and out on an alternative weekly schedule.
The decision emphasized the prematurity of a permanent relocation decision pending a report from the Office of the Children’s Lawyer.
