Bigué J. ordered the provisional foster care of X in a foster family for a period of 30 days. The parties consented to the extension of the measures until August 27, 2013. [ 3 ] At the hearing, Mtre. Myriame Gaudreault assisted X, the parents were not present or represented, and Mtre.

Gabriel Gaudreault acted on behalf of the petitioner. [ 4 ] X admitted that: • The situation of her parents remains the same and they are not regularly involved in her life; • On May 22, 2013, the youth protection worker met with her.

She informed her that she had been sleeping at her boyfriend’s house for several weeks; • She does not want to live with her foster family anymore; • She consumes drugs regularly when she is with her boyfriend; • Her boyfriend is sometimes verbally aggressive towards her.

[ 6 ] X improved her behaviour in recent months. She has maintained good attendance and she performs well at school.

She also respects her curfew and asks for permission to stay at her boyfriend’s house. She shows respect to her aunt D and she feels happy at home. [ 7 ] X agreed with the measures proposed by the youth protection worker. [ 8 ] The youth’s situation is still in danger. [ 9 ] FOR THESE REASONS, THE COURT:

[ 10 ] GRANTS the motion; [ 11 ] ORDERS that X be placed in a foster family for a period of six months and TAKES NOTICE that the foster family is that of her aunt D; [ 12 ] ORDERS that E not have contact with the youth; [ 13 ] ORDERS that the youth not have contact with E; [ 14 ] ORDERS that a person working for an institution or body provide aid, counselling and assistance to the youth, the youth’s family and the aunt; [ 15 ] ORDERS that the youth and the youth’s family take an active
