Court orders police assistance to enforce children's medical testing and return flight to Nigeria following abduction.
The applicant father sought directions to enforce a previous court order requiring the respondent mother to return their children to Nigeria.
The mother, who had unlawfully abducted the children to Canada, failed to cooperate with travel arrangements, including required COVID-19 testing and Yellow Fever vaccinations.
The court ordered the Waterloo Regional Police to take the children to obtain the necessary medical procedures to facilitate their return flight, noting the mother's distress but emphasizing the need for compliance with the final orders.
Appeal dismissed; vendors not obligated to extend closing date due to time of the essence provision.
The appellant purchaser appealed a summary judgment granting damages to the respondent vendors for a failed real estate transaction.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding no error in the motion judge's decision.
The Court held that due to the 'time of the essence' provision, the vendors were not obligated to extend the closing date.
Furthermore, because the purchaser failed to tender funds after the closing date, he could not claim the vendors failed to mitigate by not completing the transaction with him.
The vendors' mitigation steps were deemed reasonable.
