The applicant father brought an ex parte motion to enforce a prior interim custody order granting him custody of three children after the respondent mother failed to return them following weekend access.
The court found that the existing custody order remained in effect and that the respondent had not complied with its terms.
The father sought a police enforcement order directing authorities to apprehend and return the children.
The court granted the motion and authorized any police force in Ontario to apprehend the children and return them to the father in accordance with the prior custody order.
