The court granted summary judgment for Crown wardship with no access, finding the parent's cognitive limitations posed an ongoing risk of harm.
A child protection motion for summary judgment brought by the Children's Aid Society seeking a finding that a child is in need of protection under section 37(2)(b)(i) of the Child and Family Services Act, an order for crown wardship, and an order for no maternal access.
The child was apprehended at birth and had been in foster care for approximately two years with only supervised access to the mother.
The court found that the mother's severe intellectual limitations, history of unsuccessful parenting with three prior children, personality difficulties, and inability to comply with supervision orders created a risk of physical harm.
The court granted the motion for summary judgment, finding no genuine issue requiring trial on the grounds for protection, disposition, or access.
