The Applicant father brought a motion seeking the return of their one-year-old daughter to Trenton, Ontario, and primary residence or a shared parenting arrangement.
The Respondent mother brought a cross-motion seeking primary residence in Vankleek Hill, Ontario, following her unilateral relocation.
The court, applying the Children's Law Reform Act and principles of interim mobility, found the mother's relocation self-serving and not in the child's best interests, noting her non-compliance with statutory notice requirements.
The court ordered the child's residency to be established within 50 km of Trenton, Ontario, and implemented an interim 2/2/3 parenting schedule.
