[ 2 ] For the hearing, the mother is present and represented by Mtre Michel Grenier.

The father is present, but not represented by counsel. Mtre Yan Massé represents the interest of the young child X on a legal mandate. [ 3 ] The motion is not challenged by the parents and the child’s counsel states that the measures recommended are in the best interest of his young client.

She has remained sober since. [ 5 ] The situation of the mother has improved a lot and she collaborates well with the Youth Protection Services. She is in agreement that the child continue to be entrusted to the grandmother for a period of six months with a reintegration with her after she has remained sober for a period of three months starting on December 13, 2018. [ 6 ] The father is also in agreement with these measures. [ 7 ] Mr. B has not seen X since last February.
