Here's who we report to in Saskatchewan which clearly states 'anyone' who suspects child abuse/neglect (not anyone who is certified/qualified) must report it. I'd like to know if this judge thinks daycare workers in Saskatchewan are 'not allowed' to report since he'd be taking on the provincial government here. I think he made his judgement based on his personal opinion and not laws/facts. I'd see what the methods of reporting abuse/neglect is in each province (I'm sure they all state we must report), that would be good info to support your appeal!

Wow yours is really detailed and great that it says that it's not your job to determine but a trainee social worker. And you can get a $25000 fine and imprisonment for not reporting.

One of the things that I don't get is why this court case hasn't been in the media already? There is also no info about it on the internet that I could find. You would think that a news feed would have picked up on it. At the very least, court proceedings are public. You should be able to find something.

I also don't get why the CAS wasn't subpoenaed. Even if the worker was on vacation during the date of the hearing, a supervisor would have been sent in lieu of them. Plus, a vacation wouldn't void a subpoena, this is a legal document that they are required to abide by.

You should contact the Law Society of Upper Canada and do a formal complaint against the paralegal. They could be reprimanded. This may help your appeal as well as it shows you had poor representation and they were reprimanded. You should have adjourned until she was subpoenaed, he should have told you this. You had poor representation (you know this already) and would have fared better with hiring a "walmart greeter" with no knowledge of the law.

I am so sorry for the outcome of the trail
Can you go to your bank and ask for an Equity Line of Credit for the money you need to pay the fine and also the lawyer so that way you don't lose your house
I studied in Toronto and in Vancouver and both colleges said we are to call CAS or Fam services in Vanc to protect the child as we are the last chance the child has sometimes - it did not say contact the child's Dr and let him check so the Judge got it wrong
