A child protection motion for summary judgment brought by the Children's Aid Society seeking an order for extended society care without access to either parent.
The child was placed in care due to the mother's inability to manage the child's behaviour.
The father had no contact with the child for seven years prior to the Society's involvement.
On the motion, the parties consented to an order placing the child in extended society care with access to the mother.
The only outstanding issue was whether access to the father should be ordered.
The court dismissed the motion with respect to paternal access, finding no genuine issue requiring trial and that such access would not be in the child's best interests.
