The applicant sought judicial review of two decisions by the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario denying him access to his son's personal health information held by a family services agency.
The applicant argued he was entitled to the records under the Divorce Act and various privacy statutes.
The Divisional Court dismissed the application, finding the adjudicator's decisions to be reasonable.
The court upheld the adjudicator's findings that the Divorce Act did not mandate disclosure and that the agency properly exercised its discretion in considering the best interests of the child and the applicant's motives.
