The applicant father brought an urgent motion prior to a case conference seeking various orders related to COVID-19 protocols, child counselling, mediation, and enforcement of a separation agreement.
The applicant, who is immunocompromised, sought to prevent the respondent mother from working or using third-party childcare while the child was in her care, and sought to subject the child to frequent asymptomatic COVID-19 testing.
The court dismissed the requests for counselling, mediation, and OCL involvement as not urgent.
The court temporarily relieved the respondent from the separation agreement clause preventing her from working, finding it in the child's best interests that she earn an income.
The court permitted the applicant to have the child tested for COVID-19 upon return to his care, but denied his request for more frequent discretionary testing.
