The children's aid society brought a motion for summary judgment in a status review application, seeking to place the child in the permanent care and custody of his great aunt and uncle.
The maternal grandmother, who previously had custody, opposed the motion and sought the child's return to her care.
The court found no genuine issue requiring a trial, concluding that the child continued to need protection due to the grandmother's unaddressed mental health challenges and delusional beliefs.
The court granted the society's motion, placing the child with the kin caregivers and ordering limited access for the grandmother via text communication.
