The father brought a motion seeking unsupervised access and a return of the children to his care, while the mother sought continuation of supervised access and termination of telephone contact.
The court reviewed extensive materials and prior orders finding that the father had engaged in ongoing parental alienation and continued to raise adult issues with the children during access.
The court determined that the father had not demonstrated behavioural change or progress through counselling sufficient to justify unsupervised access.
Concerns also remained regarding the potential risk of international removal of the children.
The court ordered permanent supervised access and terminated regularly scheduled telephone access except in limited circumstances where weekly in‑person access does not occur.
