The father brought a motion alleging the mother was in contempt of court orders regarding parenting time, as the children had refused to participate in alternating weekend visits since October 2024.
The mother brought a cross-motion seeking retroactive authorization for her relocation with the two daughters from Barrie to Burk's Falls, Ontario.
The court declined to find contempt but found the mother in breach of the parenting order.
The court authorized the relocation on a temporary basis, imposed conditions requiring the mother to use reasonable parenting tools to facilitate the father's parenting time, and ordered both parties to participate in mediation and reunification therapy.
The court also imposed restrictions on further relocations and apportioned travel costs to the mother.
