The Children's Aid Society brought a summary judgment motion on a status review application, seeking a final order granting custody of two children to their maternal great aunt and uncle.
The children's mother and maternal grandmother opposed the motion, seeking custody or placement with supervision.
The court found that the children had flourished in the care of their great aunt and uncle for three years and that there was no realistic possibility of an outcome other than a custodial order in their favour.
Summary judgment for custody was granted, but the issue of access was directed to trial.
