A child protection proceeding involving four children with proceedings in two different jurisdictions.
The applicant society sought to transfer the matter from Kapuskasing to Woodstock, while the respondent mother sought interim custody of the children.
The court applied the "preponderance of convenience" test under section 48(3) of the Child and Family Services Act, considering the best interests of the children.
The court found that the matter should remain in Kapuskasing jurisdiction and granted interim custody to the respondent mother subject to supervision and conditions.
