The applicant Children and Family Services for York Region brought a motion for summary judgment seeking a finding that the two subject children were in need of protection and an order for Crown wardship with no access.
The respondent father brought a cross-motion seeking the return of the children.
The children, who have complex needs including Autism Spectrum Disorder and suspected Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, were apprehended due to severe neglect and lack of medical care.
The parents had not exercised access in 14 months and failed to provide evidence raising a genuine issue for trial.
The court granted the applicant's motion, finding the children in need of protection and ordering Crown wardship with no access, and dismissed the father's motion.
