This case concerns a temporary care hearing under the Child, Youth and Family Services Act, 2017, for two children, JS1 and DA.
The applicant, Dilico Anishinabek Family Care, sought to place the children in its temporary care due to concerns of physical harm and neglect by the parents, including inappropriate discipline, failure to meet children's needs, and substance abuse.
The court found reasonable grounds to believe the children were at risk, citing consistent allegations from the children, the parents' uncooperative behaviour, lack of insight, and failure to complete rehabilitative programs.
The court ordered the children into the temporary care of the agency with supervised access for the parents.
