The applicant children's aid society sought an order for extended society care for two First Nations children with special needs.
The children were removed from their father's care following disclosures of inappropriate touching, though the court could not conclude on a balance of probabilities that the father was the perpetrator.
The court found the children in need of protection due to a failure to provide treatment, emotional harm, and risk of emotional harm stemming from the parents' residential instability, the mother's unaddressed alcohol addiction, and exposure to domestic violence.
The court ordered the children placed in extended society care, finding that neither parent nor the maternal grandmother could provide a safe and stable environment.
Specified access was granted to both parents and the children's First Nations band.
