The applicant father brought a motion to resume his parenting time after it was suspended due to a series of unverified physical and sexual abuse allegations orchestrated by the respondent mother and her new partner.
The mother brought a cross-motion to suspend the father's parenting time and for a restraining order.
The court found a material change in circumstances, noting the mother's lack of insight, her partner's concerning criminal and mental health history, and the failure of child welfare agencies to adequately intervene.
The court dismissed the mother's cross-motion, ordered the resumption of the father's parenting time on a supervised basis, and directed the involvement of the children's aid society to support the family's reunification.
