The applicant filed a complaint against the children's aid society, alleging that a caseworker inappropriately attended a Violence Threat Risk Assessment (VTRA) meeting concerning his daughter without his consent, and that the society failed to verify inaccurate information about pending criminal charges against him.
The Child and Family Services Review Board dismissed the application, finding that the caseworker attended the VTRA meeting solely as an observer to collect information and did not participate in any decision-making that would trigger the applicant's right to be heard under section 15(2) of the Child, Youth and Family Services Act.
Furthermore, the Board accepted that the inaccurate information regarding criminal charges did not factor into the society's investigation or decisions.
