REASONS FOR DISPOSITION
(Dated August 13, 2025)
Introduction
On February 19, 2009, Mwafak Hannora was found not criminally responsible on account of mental disorder on a charge of sexual assault, contrary to the Criminal Code. Mr. Hannora is currently subject to an Ontario Review Board Disposition of August 1, 2024, which detains him at the Forensic Program at Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences with privileges up to and including to live in the community in housing approved by the person in charge.
On July 17, 2025, the Ontario Review Board convened at Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences (Ontario Shores) to conduct Mr. Hannora’s annual review and to make a disposition further to s. 672.54 of the Criminal Code. Prior to hearing of the evidence, the parties presented their without prejudice positions. The hospital and the Crown Attorney agreed that Mr. Hannora continued to represent a significant threat to the safety of the public and that he required a continuation of his current Disposition with the same terms and conditions. In anticipation of Mr. Hannora’s move to the community within the jurisdiction of the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto (“CAMH”), they requested that both hospitals be named as supervising hospitals in any Disposition with the ultimate goal expected to be Mr. Hannora’s transfer to CAMH.within the coming reporting year.
Mr. Hannora denies that he is a significant threat to the safety of the public and requests an Absolute Discharge. His secondary position is that if the Board finds that he is a significant threat, he asks for a Conditional Discharge, with a consent to treatment provision and a requirement that he reside at an apartment at 1477 Mississauga Valley Boulevard, Unit 307 and/or Mr. Hannora’s brother’s address at 115 Hillcrest Avenue in Mississauga, Unit 2101.
On behalf of her client, Ms. Boissonneault also indicated that whether the Board finds that Mr. Hannora remains detained or on a Conditional Discharge, a transition to the CAMH jurisdiction is appropriate. Ms. Boissonneault was also of the view that both hospitals, Ontario Shores and CAMH, could be named in a Disposition as supervising hospitals in anticipation that her client moves to one or the other of the above addresses.
At the conclusion of the evidence, the Review Board found that Mr. Hannora is a significant threat to the safety of the public and that he be detained in hospital with the same terms and conditions as his existing Disposition and that Mr. Hannora’s care be transferred to CAMH at the time he is discharged from Ontario Shores to the community addresses above noted.
Index Offence
- A Hospital Report of June 18, 2025, authored by Dr. Mark Pearce, was filed as Exhibit 1. It contains a brief description of the index offence of sexual assault as follows:
“On August 11, 2008 at about 10:40a.m., the victim, V.H., a Canada Post employee, was standing by the front lobby of 335 Webb Drive, Mississauga, preparing to deliver the mail. At that time, the accused, Mwaffak Hannora, was visiting his grandfather who resides in the above-mentioned building. The accused was standing close to the victim by the intercom area. He struck up a conversation with the victim by introducing himself, shook her hand and then slapped the victim on her buttock. The victim was taken aback by his action, feared for her safety and entered the building to alert security. The incident was captured on security video.”
Background
Mr. Hannora is now 40 years of age. He was born in Syria, the fifth of eight children and he immigrated to Canada in 1999. He apparently completed grade 12 from Streetsville Secondary School. There is no known history of employment and at the time of the index offence, he was living with his father and supported by his father and his siblings.
Mr. Hannora was admitted on a number of occasions in each year between 2004 and 2007 primarily for symptoms of mania and psychosis, including paranoid and grandiose delusions. He was treated with various medications including antipsychotic medications. He generally had good response to the medications, but poor compliance disrupted his overall functioning.
Following a sexual assault charge of February 2006, he was admitted to hospital where, among other things, he demonstrated sexually inappropriate behaviour and delusional thinking.
Following the index offence of August 11, 2008, and on his admission to CAMH, he was described as distracted, disinhibited, sexual preoccupied, loud, and expressing grandiose and religious delusions. He required locked seclusion and constant observation while out of seclusion.
On September 17, 2008, he seriously sexually assaulted a nurse at CAMH. As a result, he was transferred to the Mental Health Centre in Penetanguishene (now Waypoint Centre for Mental Health Care).
Dr. Lisa Ramshaw provided a psychiatric assessment for his trial following the index offence. She diagnosed Mr. Hannora with schizoaffective disorder and a history of substance abuse, and she felt he appeared to have borderline intellectual functioning. She concluded that Mr. Hannora needed ongoing structure and supervision for the safety of others.
Following his NCR finding on February 19, 2009, Mr. Hannora was admitted to the Whitby Mental Health Centre (now Ontario Shores). He was begun on antipsychotic medication, clozapine, in March of 2009 and was deemed incapable to consent to treatment on March 2, 2009, with his father acting as substitute decision maker.
In May of 2021, he was discharged to Ballantyne House in Whitby, a home supported by the Durham Mental Health Services. In November 2024, a change of residence was made to McKay House, a high support living arrangement supervised by the Durham Mental Health Services.
An excerpt from the annual report of May 31, 2022, to June 16, 2023, contained in the June 18, 2025, Hospital Report, outlines generally his course while living in the community at Ballantyne House.
“Overall Mr. Hannora remained cooperative and pleasant with both group home staff, other residents and members of the FOS care team. His insight remained limited as he continued to experience residual grandiose delusions of being “a King of Kings,” having many wives with lots of children, delusions of owning the hospital and many businesses, and having relationships with powerful politicians. At times, his grandiose delusions can lead to problematic behaviour that impacts his decision-making, insight, interactions with staff, interpersonal relationships and future employment opportunities. His illness can be somewhat brittle and occasionally prescribed medications (such as antibiotics) or smoking can affect his clozapine levels, which in turn can lead to more overt psychotic symptoms. Most of Mr. Hannora’s negative interactions with staff, residents or family members occurred when he was physically ill, including the most recent readmission to hospital in May 2023 when he was being treated for pneumonia.
Mr. Hannora remained committed to working with his FOS team to better understand and target his delusions through the CBTp process. This process proved difficult for him, yet he attended 4 sessions thus far and was fully engaged. The format was tailored to meet the unique needs of his complex delusional system. Initially, his stated therapy goal was to convince others he was a King with many wives and immense wealth but over time, he identified smaller, more realistic goals that were beneficial and achievable.
Mr. Hannora continued to report he understands that his mental illness can be exacerbated by substance use, and to his credit, his requests to use cannabis were less frequent. However, he expressed that he would enjoy having the opportunity to share a drink with family, particularly when toasting during family celebrations. Dr Pearce discussed this matter with Moustafa, his brother, in June 2023 and Moustafa relayed, in no uncertain terms, that any alcohol use would be very detrimental.”
The Hospital Report also notes that because of the “brittle nature” of Mr. Hannora’s illness, his attempts to follow the practices of his faith for Ramadan required of him, great mental and physical effort.
The importance of consistently taking his prescribed clozapine medication was illustrated while Mr. Hannora was traveling with his father to Turkey and Saudi Arabia during the week of March 20, 2024. During that period his luggage was apparently lost along with his medications. The Hospital Report outlines the following circumstances:
“When the medications were again available to him, a couple of days later, he refused to take them as prescribed. He wanted to attend several different religious sites in Saudi Arabia and did not want to waste time sleeping, which clozapine would contribute to. Ultimately, he was only partially compliant with the clozapine; his family had to sneak some of his medication into his food. He decompensated to some extent and he smoked at a religious site and then argued with a taxi driver. Ultimately, he was arrested and incarcerated for several days. He was taken to hospital and injected with Clopixol, it appeared. With the aid of government officials and his father, he was released into his father’s care and was permitted to leave the country.”
Mr. Hannora has required continued observation when taking his medication to prevent cheeking or self-induced vomiting, although these incidents were small in number. He has often reported extreme fatigue due to his medication and has often asked to discontinue it, stating that he did not think he needed this medication.
In the 2024 reporting year, Mr. Hannora was granted a number of leaves of absence (LOA) to his brother Mahmoud Hannora’s home and for the most part they proceeded without difficulty. Building on the success of the LOAs, the family’s hope and plan was to move Mr. Hannora closer to his brother to live and have him assist with work at his brother’s car repair business.
Unfortunately, due to his noncompliance with clozapine during his trip to Saudi Arabia and Turkey and his then disregard for his father's efforts to manage his medication, Mr. Hannora's family took a step back from the hope to move him into the community close to his family. Furthermore, in the months of May and June 2024, Mr. Hannora's interactions with female staff were at times inappropriate.
These factors undoubtedly played a factor in a rejection of his application to Community Homes for Opportunity (CHO). CHO felt that Mr. Hannora’s delusional system negatively affected his ability to inhibit inappropriate behaviour and that they could not provide sufficient supervision for him.
It is also noted that, from time-to-time, his grandiose delusions interfered with fulfilling his duties at Ballantyne House, although overall he was able to be managed by Ballantyne House staff and the hospital’s outpatient team.
It was reported that when Mr. Hannora worked part time for his brother during some leaves of absence, he enjoyed it and was helpful.
Evidence at Hearing
The evidence of the hospital was provided by Dr. Mark Pearce and the filing of the Hospital Report of June 18, 2025. Dr. Pearce testified that Mr. Hannora has had a good year. Dr. Pearce acknowledges the importance of Mr. Hannora's family support and that they be in close proximity to him; the hospital supports their efforts.
Two brothers, Mahmoud and Mustafa, although living separately, reside a few kilometres from an apartment where the family proposes the accused would live, at 1477 Mississauga Valley Boulevard, Unit 307. (Ms.Boissonneault also included brother Mahmoud’s 115 Hillcrest Ave. apartment as a community living option, but based on Mahmoud’s testimony at this hearing, the preferred placement by the family is the friend’s apartment)
The 1477 apartment is owned or leased by a good family friend who is aware of Mr. Hannora’s mental health issues. The friend will not be responsible for managing any portion of the accused’s medication. 1477 is an independent apartment. It is neither supervised nor otherwise supported by any agency. The friend will accept rent from Mr. Hannora or his brothers for Mr. Hannora’s share of the apartment.
The 1477 apartment is within the catchment area of CAMH. If Ontario Shores approves his accommodation for the 1477 apartment and the hospital team determines that he is ready for this move, a transfer of his outpatient care will then be made to CAMH.
For this purpose, Ontario Shores sent a Rule 13 notice to CAMH asking if it would consider it appropriate that Mr. Hannora be transferred to CAMH once he is successfully transitioned to the Mississauga address.
A response was received from CAMH by a letter of July 14, 2025, authored by Dr. Darby, who indicated that “should that transition be successful, it would appear quite appropriate that Mr. Hannora’s care be transferred to CAMH’s Forensic Outpatient Service”.
Dr. Pearce testified that for the past four or five months, Mr. Hannora has essentially been living at his brother’s apartment and has only spent a few days of that time period at McKay House.
Dr. Pearce acknowledges that the proposed apartment owned by the family friend is not ideal, but with proper support from an outpatient service and the family and the in-house friend, it could be managed. Dr. Pearce expects that in the next few months, Mr. Hannora could move into the 1477 apartment on a full-time basis. At the time of today's hearing, Mr. Hannora had started spending one night per week at his new apartment with the plan to increase to two nights per week, with the remaining five nights living with his brother Mahmoud.
Dr. Pearce believes that Mr. Hannora’s family do not want their brother living with them full time because of the responsibility associated with that, although it is intended that the family would supervise his medication and structure his time including working alongside his brother, should he be transitioned to the 1477 address.
Throughout the past year, Mr. Hannora has made occasional sexual gestures or comments towards Durham Mental Health Services staff members and in January 2025, he was given a no trespassing order from Ontario Shores because he was selling cigarettes on the property.
Although he has not been seen responding to internal stimuli, Mr. Hannora remains subject to grandiose delusional beliefs. His insight is considered to be fairly limited; however, he has been cooperative, particularly with taking medication.
Dr. Pierce testified that an improvement in the past year is that Mr. Hannora has not asked for alternative medications in many months nor has he expressed a wish to use cannabis.
An assessment of Mr. Hannora’s risk included completion of the Risk for Violence Protocol guide (RSVP) which hoped to provide an evaluation of his future risk of committing a sexually violent act. Although the assessment was completed in 2016, it has been reviewed and updated since. The results contained in the Hospital Report include: “Overall, Mr. Hannora appears to be slowly developing an awareness regarding the inappropriateness his past sexual behaviour with increased receptivity when discussing same.”
In addressing the risk factors associated with a Conditional Discharge, it concluded that Mr. Hannora’s risk for sexual re-offending is estimated to be in the moderate – high range for sexually inappropriate behaviour, “...including exposure and inappropriate physical contact with the assumption that a degree of monitoring by FOS and family would continue for both medication compliance and substance misuse”.
The HCR-20 risk assessment states: “when considering a Conditional Discharge, the most likely re-offence scenario would involve inappropriate physical contact or sexual behavior towards staff members, peers or, possibly members of the public if not adequately supervised. If Mr. Hannora’s mental status deteriorated significantly and went undetected, the inappropriate conduct may become more serious in terms of its frequency, intrusiveness, and/or degree of coercion”.
The Hospital Report outlines the the hospital team’s clinical assessment of Mr. Hannora’s risk as follows:
“Mr. Hannora’s clinical risk factors are identified by the HCR-20 and include the presence of a severe, treatment-resistant major mental illness with residual symptoms, limited insight into same, and a history of medication non-compliance as recently as the spring of 2024. There is also a historical substance use disorder to contend with. Absent a Disposition of the Board, it is not clear where he would reside and he is likely to, given his limited insight, discontinue his medication. He may distance himself from his care providers and certain family members. There is also a risk he would return to substances of abuse. Overall and without the oversight provided by the Board, there would be a real risk of serious physical or psychological harm to members of the public. He requires ongoing, assertive care for the time being.”
Dr. Pearce confirmed that an absence of either supervised housing or support from the hospital or support from the family would increase Mr. Hannora’s risk.
Dr. Pearce also added that every year while in the hospital’s care, Mr. Hannora has experienced instances of negative responses to stressors. The ongoing transition from the hospital to the community is going well; however, this will be difficult and he will need considerable support in the meantime.
Ms. Boissonneault presented Mr. Mahmoud Hannora to give testimony. Mahmoud is one of the accused’s brothers. Another brother, Mustafa Hannora, has been acting as the accused’s substitute decision maker with respect to psychiatric treatment.
Mr. Mahmoud Hannora testified that he and his brother Moustafa see the accused every day. He acknowledges that after the travel incident when the accused, Mr. Hannora, refused his father's direction regarding substances and behaviour, the family felt that the accused had betrayed them and for a period of about one year, there was limited or no effort by the family to continue with the plan to move the accused into the community with them or near them.
Mahmoud testified that eventually communications with the accused improved. The brothers took a different approach than had Mr. Hannora's father, who had probably been too lenient with his son. Instead, the brothers lectured him about his poor response to direction, stressing that unless he followed the rules set by his brothers and the outpatient team, they would not be supporting his move to live with or near them in the community.
For the past few lengthy leaves of absence, the accused has come to work with Mahmoud Hannora. This happens every other day because it is too tiring for Mr. Hannora to attend more than that. The brothers assume responsibility for Mr. Hannora’s medication. Mahmoud has the medication with him at all times. The brothers assume responsibility for providing his medication in the mornings and evenings. In the afternoons, it is left to Mr. Hannora himself to take, and he is obliged to produce the empty blister pack to Mahmoud to confirm his compliance.
Mahmoud testified that they will monitor the accused’s progress with medication adherence over time and, if at some point he is able to successfully assume both the morning and afternoon doses, this would relieve some of the burden on the brothers; the brothers would continue to provide him with his evening dose.
Mahmoud has noted some improvements. The biggest one in his view, is that he feels it is safe enough for the accused to be with his family and children. Mahmoud has two young female children and a wife in his apartment.
Mahmoud testified that the accused is more directable. The apartment that he now shares with the family friend provides him with a sense of purpose and responsibility with respect to groceries and cleaning, etc. The accused likes the apartment and the fact that he is there and apparently enjoying it is a relief to Mahmoud and the rest of his family.
In the context of identifying a residence in a possible Conditional Discharge order, Mahmoud testified that both addresses, the friend’s apartment and Mahmoud's apartment, would be workable as stated residences; however, if a problem arose, Mahmoud would like the option to change these living arrangements and have his brother live elsewhere.
The family would also like control of Mr. Hannora’s financial well-being, the place of his residence and his medication, perhaps by obtaining from him a power of attorney. Mahmoud affirms that each brother in the family would likely be allocated a share of responsibility for finances, residence and medication.
Efforts were made by the family to locate a group home nearby their homes; however, there was not one that was geographically convenient, and the selection of the friend’s apartment was the preferred option.
Mahmoud confirmed that the family would need a psychiatrist with whom to communicate to follow Mr. Hannora were he to be given an Absolute Discharge. He would also like the ability to take his brother back to hospital for an assessment if needed. Mahmoud stated that for the most part, he has control over his brother who would take direction from him.
In response to Dr. Pearce’s question, Mahmoud acknowledges that it would be too much to have the accused live with them. Mahmoud needs to have his brother on his own schedule that fits in with his family and his own work schedule.
Mahmoud expressed concern that if his brother was given an Absolute Discharge, all support that his brother now has from the treatment team would disappear. In any event, as Mahmoud stated, if the accused was “released” he would like him to be under the family's supervision.
Submissions
The hospital and Crown Attorney submit that Mr. Hannora remains a significant threat to the safety of the public and that the evidence entirely supports this as it does the need for a Detention Order. They submit that neither an Absolute Discharge nor a Conditional Discharge is realistic. Notwithstanding the existence of considerable family support, they stress the importance of the hospital maintaining control and supervision of Mr. Hannora’s community placement. Currently, neither the family friend’s apartment at 1477 Mississauga Valley Boulevard nor the 115 Hillcrest, address, has been approved, although it is expected that one or both of these will be approved in the weeks to come. Technically, Mr. Hannora will be on a leave of absence until the actual placement.
Ms. MacDonald reminded the Board that in the coming year, a lot of change for Mr. Hannora is expected and this is not the time to move from a Detention Order. The evidence supports a need for oversight, particularly with respect to the taking of clozapine medication which he has resisted in the past and with which he has been noncompliant.
Ms. Boissonneault submitted that not since the year of the index offence has there been any serious criminal conduct and that Mr. Hannora’s inappropriate comments and advances over the years might “cause discomfort” but do not meet the test for serious criminal conduct required by s. 672.54.
With respect to a Conditional Discharge and the need for the hospital to approve Mr. Hannora’s housing, Ms. Boissonneault submitted that it appears that the hospital will soon approve this housing, which has considerable support from his family. Accordingly, a Conditional Discharge could include the address as proposed as they will be in place.
Ms. Boissonneault also noted that when asked in the past to return to hospital, Mr. Hannora has cooperated. Furthermore, as he is incapable of consenting to psychiatric treatment the Mental Health Act would be workable for his return to hospital and the public safety issues would be met.
All counsel are of the view that at some point, a transfer to CAMH, as the supervising hospital, will be required if and when Mr. Hannora is discharged to the Mississauga community where his brothers live. Counsel feel that the wording of the Disposition could be crafted to include both hospitals as supervising hospitals and the actual physical transfer of care could be decided internally between Ontario Shores and CAMH when Mr. Hannora moves to housing in Mississauga.
Analysis and Decision
The Review Board finds that Mr. Hannora remains a significant threat to the safety of the public and that the necessary and appropriate Disposition is a continuation of Mr. Hannora’s Detention Order with no change in the terms and conditions other than provision for his transfer to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto, if and when he is moved to living in the community in Mississauga.
Mr. Hannora suffers from a major mental disorder of schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type, accompanied by substance use disorders currently in sustained remission. Mr. Hannora has at least a 20-year history of psychiatric treatment for his mental illness with many admissions to hospitals and many years of active psychosis including disorganization, delusions of grandeur, disinhibition and sexual preoccupation including verbal and physical sexual assaults.
Mr. Hannora’s schizoaffective disorder is considered treatment refractory. Over the years, he has had many antipsychotic medications and mood stabilizers with which he was often noncompliant or partially compliant or refusing medication altogether. He has been incapable to consent to psychiatric treatment for years and his brother now acts as his substitute decision maker, assuming this role that their father once had.
Although symptoms of illness have been ameliorated by clozapine medication in the past few years, Mr. Hannora continues to endorse fixed grandiose delusional beliefs including the grandiose belief that he is a king. This sense of superiority often resulted in him feeling that he need not follow the rules of a hospital’s outpatient team or the community homes supervised by the Durham Mental Health Services.
Until this past year, he has repeatedly asked to change or reduce his medication and expressed his wish to use cannabis.
Mr. Hannora’s sexually inappropriate behaviour has decreased in frequency and intensity, however, he continues to make occasional sexual gestures or comments towards group home staff members which require his redirection. Fortunately, there have been no incidents related to exhibitionism or physical contact.
The introduction of clozapine and ongoing education and staff redirection have brought about this improvement; however, he continues to display limited insight into how his sexual conduct affects others and the inappropriateness of it. Mr. Hannora continues to experience symptoms associated with his mental illness. He still has sexually inappropriate thoughts which have not stopped, though his awareness of their inappropriateness seems to be improving. Except for making inappropriate comments, he has not acted on these thoughts, because of control by medication, supervision and redirection by hospital and group home staff and his family, and the least onerous and least restrictive terms imposed by his Detention Order.
The Board disagrees with accused counsel’s minimization of the effect of Mr. Hannora’s sexualized comments to staff made while he has been detained in hospital. Whether or not his comments cause only “discomfort” or a degree of psychological harm to those who receive them, is very much a subjective measurement and it takes no imagination to conclude that they could cause psychological harm to some recipients.
To his credit, in the past year, Mr. Hannora has stopped his request for cannabis and changes in his medication. The last time of medication noncompliance was the spring of 2024.
It is Dr. Pearce’s and the hospital team’s conclusion, consistent with the HCR-20 clinical assessment of risk, that it is imperative the hospital retain the ability to approve Mr. Hannora’s housing and that he requires ongoing supervision and that the Mental Health Act would be insufficient to manage his risk to members of the public.
The accused has submitted that he is not a significant threat to the safety of the public and that he should be absolutely discharged or alternatively, conditionally discharged. The evidence as above-described dictates otherwise. The Board finds that the level of supervision required for Mr. Hannora, the continuing and significant risk to members of the public and the hospital’s need to approve his accommodation, rules out an Absolute Discharge and renders unrealistic the concept of a Conditional discharge.
Mr. Hannora is fortunate to have a highly supportive family. The testimony of his brother, Mahmoud, demonstrated that he and his family are quite familiar with the nature of the accused’s mental illness and have an awareness of the behaviours associated with it. In his evidence, Mr. Mahmoud Hannora demonstrated a knowledge of and a sensitivity to the care needed by his brother. He conveyed a dedication by him and his family to supporting the accused’s living in the community by their undertaking the supervision of his comings and goings, his medication compliance and a willingness and obligation to notify the hospital outpatient team for help if needed.
The family has arranged for Mr. Hannora to be a tenant in a family friend's apartment in Mississauga at 1477 Mississauga Valley Boulevard, Unit 307. This is geographically quite close to Mr. Mahmoud Hannora’s address at 115 Hillcrest, Mississauga and another brother in the Mississauga area.
Mr. Mahmoud Hannora concedes that it would be too much for him or other members of the accused’s family to have Mr. Hannora live with them. By arranging with their friend to lease out part of his apartment to the accused, this can keep Mr. Hannora close to members of his family while they continue to monitor his medication and visit with him and keep him helping his brother at his place of work.
The 1477 Mississauga Valley Boulevard address is not yet approved as a community living arrangement by the hospital; the evidence supports that it is expected that that will take place soon. When this is accomplished and Mr. Hannora is discharged from McKay House to the Mississauga home, the Ontario Shores outpatient team wishes to gradually transfer care to the CAMH Forensic Outpatient Service, and this is agreeable to CAMH.
It is proposed that this can be done by simply naming both hospitals as supervising hospitals in the Detention Order. However, the Board views that a Detention Order containing a transfer to CAMH, to be effected at the time when Mr. Hannora has successfully transitioned to the Mississauga home, is the proper process. Residual authority would remain with Ontario Shores in the meantime.
It is clear from Dr. Pearce’s evidence and as contained in the Hospital Report that without the supervision in place for Mr. Hannora, including the hospital’s ability to approve where he lives, he would represent a real risk of serious physical or psychological harm to members of the public. The type of harm anticipated would likely be of a sexual nature as has been evident and ongoing for many years.
