The children's aid society brought a protection application seeking a finding that the child was in need of protection due to emotional harm caused by the mother.
Following the parents' separation, the mother repeatedly made unfounded allegations that the father was sexually and physically abusing the child, subjecting the child to numerous police and medical investigations.
The court found that the mother's fixed, false belief system and coaching caused the child severe anxiety and emotional harm.
The court concluded the child was in need of protection, granted sole custody to the father, and ordered that the mother's access be supervised.
