The moving party father brought a motion for access to his two-year-old daughter.
The responding party mother argued the court lacked jurisdiction because the motion was brought after a 30-day deadline set in a previous order.
The court extended the time to hear the motion under Rule 3(5) of the Family Law Rules, noting the father had not seen the child in several months.
The mother sought supervised access, but the court found no basis for her concerns or that the father was a flight risk.
The court ordered temporary unsupervised access twice a week and prohibited the removal of the child from Ontario.
