The Children's Aid Society sought an order for Crown wardship for three children.
The mother and the two fathers of the children opposed the application, seeking to have the children returned to their care.
The court found that the children were in need of protection due to the parents' significant mental health issues, substance abuse, and inability to provide a stable environment.
The mother was physically disabled and insisted on caring for one of the fathers, who suffered from severe mental illness and required constant supervision.
The other father had a history of substance abuse and an unstable lifestyle.
The court concluded that the parents' plans of care were unworkable and that it was in the best interests of the children to be made Crown wards for the purpose of adoption, with some transitional access and potential openness agreements.
