The father applied for sole custody, supervised access for the mother, and child support.
The mother sought custody or, alternatively, unsupervised access.
The child had been in the father's care since the Children's Aid Society intervened due to the mother's mental health struggles and inability to cope.
The court awarded sole custody to the father, finding that the parties' poor communication and the mother's instability made joint custody inappropriate.
However, the court granted the mother unsupervised access, concluding that the risks associated with her mental health had diminished and were outweighed by the child's need for a relationship with her mother and siblings.
The mother was also ordered to pay child support.
