The applicant mother brought a motion to change a final consent order to terminate the respondent father's parenting time and relocate the child to Montreal.
The father sought sole decision-making and an equal parenting schedule.
The court found the mother had engaged in a pattern of high-conflict litigation, terminated the child's therapy, and failed to act in the child's best interests.
Relying on the 13-year-old child's strong views and preferences, the court granted the father sole decision-making responsibility and took the unusual step of leaving parenting time with the mother entirely to the child's discretion.
The mother's motion was dismissed, and she was ordered to pay child support.
