P-34.1 ) ______________________________________________________________________ WARNING: The Youth Protection Act forbids the publishing or broadcasting of information allowing for a child or the child’s parents to be identified. Any person who contravenes this provision commits an offence and is liable to a fine (sections 11.2, 11.2.1 and 135 YPA). [ 1 ] The Director of Youth Protection of the Cree Board of Health and Social Services A asks the review of the last judgment rendered on December 4, 2012 concerning X, 16 ½ years old.

He asks that the youth be placed in the specific family of Mrs C until her majority. [ 2 ] At the hearing, the mother, even if duly served, is absent. Me Aubrée Coutanson acts for the youth and Me Suzanne Arpin for the applicant. [ 3 ] A revision report is filed in evidence and Mrs SOCIAL WORKER 1, the author, testifies. [ 4 ] Evidence reveals that on January 23, 2003, the child was placed until her majority with her paternal aunt, Mrs C. On December 2012, the name of the foster family had to be changed for Mrs D.

Since, the youth developed behavioural problems such as alcohol related problems, not respecting the rules, coming back intoxicated and staggering inside the residence being loud, yelling and screaming. Overwhelmed last November 25, 2013, the foster parents sent her back to Mrs C. [ 5 ] Even there, the youth had the same behavioural problems.

As she is very attached to this foster family and as Mrs C is ready to look after the youth until she reaches the age of majority, the youth wants to attend therapy at the A treatment centre. [ 6 ] The youth received a medical evaluation and was evaluated by a psychologist recently.

It will point out the issues she needs to work on belong to the mother's abandonment towards her. [ 7 ] Considering the evidence and the youth's consent to the measures, CONSEQUENTLY, THE COURT: [ 8 ] GRANTS the petition; [ 9 ] DECLARES that the security and development of X are still in danger; [ 10 ] ORDERS the placement of X in a foster family until her majority; [ 11 ] ACKNOWLEDGES that she will remain in the foster family of Mrs C; [ 12 ] ORDERS the Director of Youth Protection to provide aid, counselling and assistance to the youth until her majority;

[ 13 ] ORDERS the Director of Youth Protection to provide all the psychological and medical services that the youth may need; [ 14 ] WITHDRAWS certain attributes of the parental authority from the mother and AUTHORIZES the foster parent, Mrs C, to sign all the documents required for school, medical and social activities, request for passport and all other travelling documents and driver's licence; [ 15 ] ENTRUSTS the youth's situation to the Director of Youth Protection for the purpose of executing this judgment. __________________________________ DENYSE LEDUC, J.C.Q.
