The applicant mother brought a motion to change seeking a temporary order to relocate the parties' child from London to Calgary.
The respondent father opposed the move and sought a 2-2-3 parenting schedule.
The court applied the relocation provisions of the Children's Law Reform Act and found that the mother, as the primary caregiver, had a reasonable plan for relocation that would provide her with family support and career advancement.
The court determined that the relocation was in the child's best interests and granted the temporary order, while establishing a schedule for the father's contact with the child.
