This case involves two Status Review Applications brought by the Catholic Children’s Aid Society of Toronto concerning four children.
The Society sought extended society care for all children, while the father sought a twelve-month supervision order for all children to be placed with him.
The mother agreed to extended society care for the children.
The court assessed the children's best interests, considering their special needs, the parents' ability to provide consistent care, and the father's history of non-compliance and undermining placements.
The court found the father unreliable and secretive.
Ultimately, the court ordered extended society care for all four children, with specific access provisions where the children are the access holders, and the parents are the recipients, subject to the children's views and the society's discretion.
