This is a Status Review Application under the Child, Youth and Family Services Act, 2017 concerning two children who were apprehended in November 2015 following serious injuries inflicted by the mother's partner.
The mother sought return of the children to her care or placement with her mother.
The Society sought an order for extended care to facilitate adoption by the current kinship placement.
The court found that the mother had not adequately addressed the protection concerns despite significant support and services over 26 months.
The court ordered extended care of both children with the Society, with the children holding access rights to the mother at the Society's discretion.
