The Children's Aid Society (CAS) brought a motion for summary judgment seeking an order for extended society care for the child, G., for purposes of adoption.
The respondent mother, K.S., opposed the motion, arguing the evidentiary record was insufficient.
The court found that the child remained in need of protection due to the mother's enduring mental and physical health challenges, inability to provide self-care, lack of insight into protection concerns, inconsistent access attendance, and an unsafe home environment.
The court granted the CAS's motion for extended society care, concluding that no less intrusive disposition was in the child's best interests, but also ordered that the mother shall have access to the child, and the child shall have access to the mother, with the specifics at the Society's discretion.
