The applicant father and respondent mother sought a determination on the primary residence of their two children and child support.
The children had been living primarily with the father on his farm for over three years.
The mother, who had overcome post-partum depression and improved her life circumstances, sought primary care.
The court found it was in the best interests of the children to maintain stability and ordered joint custody with primary residence remaining with the father.
The mother was granted specified access and ordered to pay child support according to the Guidelines, with her arrears fixed at zero.
