The applicant brought a motion for summary judgment seeking an order of Crown wardship for a child, with no access to the parents.
The mother opposed the motion, proposing a plan of care where she would live with her mother and step-father.
The court found no genuine issue for trial, relying on a previous psychological assessment indicating the mother's cognitive challenges and inability to parent independently, as well as uncontradicted evidence of child protection concerns regarding the maternal grandparents.
The court ordered Crown wardship and, finding the mother failed to establish a beneficial and meaningful relationship, made the order silent as to access.
