The Children's Aid Society brought a motion seeking interim care and custody of a newborn child, K.B., and discretionary supervised access for the parents.
The Mother, E.B., conceded the child was in need of protection but sought the child's return under a supervision order, or frequent access if placed in Society care.
The court found the child should remain in the interim care of the Society, citing concerns about the Mother's past care of another child and recent improvements being too new.
The court also ordered more diligent in-person access for the Mother, criticizing the Society's blanket no-in-person access policy during COVID-19 without medical evidence.
