The children's aid society brought a motion for temporary care and custody of a four-year-old child.
The society sought to have the child remain in the mother's care, subject to strict supervision by the maternal grandfather, due to allegations of physical abuse involving the mother's partner and another child.
The mother opposed the supervision order, while the father sought temporary custody.
The court found credible evidence that the child would be at risk of harm if left unsupervised with the mother or her partner.
The court granted the society's motion, ordering that the child remain with the mother under the grandfather's supervision, with the father having access every second weekend.
