Child protection motion under the Child and Family Services Act seeking a temporary care and custody order.
The court considered evidence of chronic school absences, unsanitary living conditions including mold, concerns about supervision, sexualized behaviour by one child, and a positive hair follicle drug test for amphetamines/methamphetamines by the father.
The court found the father had not demonstrated the ability to protect the children from ongoing harm and instability.
It concluded that supervision would be insufficient to protect the children.
A temporary order placing the children in the care and custody of the child protection agency for six months was granted.
