The applicant father was found in contempt for failing to return the children after an access visit, despite eventually purging the contempt.
This endorsement addresses the sanction for contempt and the award of costs.
The court imposed a penalty of $252 and awarded full indemnity costs of $3,968.81 to the respondent mother, payable at $200 per month.
The decision emphasized the father's bad faith, misrepresentation of facts, and the negative impact of his actions on the children and the mother's ability to provide for them, outweighing his limited ability to pay due to disability.
