This case involved two motions in a Status Review proceeding under the Child, Youth and Family Services Act.
The Children's Aid Society sought to change the placement of child A.A-L.C. to the maternal grandmother, V.C., while the respondent father, J.T., sought placement of his biological child, J.C-T., in his care.
Both children were currently in the care of their mother, A.C., under supervision orders.
The court dismissed both motions, finding that despite the mother's non-compliance with supervision terms and some inappropriate behavior, there was insufficient evidence to demonstrate a change in circumstances requiring the children's removal from her care, particularly given the lack of evidence of direct harm to the children and the importance of sibling bonds.
