A 42-year-old Toronto mother has been fined more than $35,000 for systematically alienating her three daughters from their father after the couple's marriage broke down.
In making the unusually harsh ruling, Madam Justice Faye McWatt of the Ontario Superior Court said that the woman - a chiropodist identified only as K.D. - blithely flouted a series of court orders aimed at restoring her children's relationship with their father.
"The respondent came to this court time and time again and consented to orders in question," Judge McWatt said. "Once she left this building, she ignored the orders, believing that she could escape scrutiny. The evidence of her contempts is overwhelming."
The ruling was the second stage of a decision Judge McWatt started last year when she ordered that the three girls be seized, sent to a parental alienation centre in the United States for deprogramming and prevented from communicating with their mother.
The children - aged 14, 11 and 9 - now live in the sole custody of their father.
"At the end of the day this was a case about a parent who did not care about what was best for her children," the father's lawyer, Harold Niman, said in an interview yesterday. "The contempt findings and penalties will hopefully make it clear to other like-minded parents that orders are to be taken seriously - and there are consequences to those parents who ignore them."
Soon after the couple met in 1993, K.D. became pregnant. While K.D. attempted to keep the father from seeing his first daughter, she eventually agreed to marry him. The couple soon split up, but had two more children during brief periods of reunification.
Judge McWatt categorically rejected the mother's assertion that she was not to blame for anything, and that the children had unilaterally refused to associate with their father, a 56-year-old vascular surgeon identified as A.L.
"There is really only one explanation for the children's attitudes," she said. "It is their mother's consistent negative influence on them from their early childhood about A.L., and her persistence in excluding them from his children's lives."
Judge McWatt noted that a total of six judges had issued orders in the long-running case - and virtually none of them were honoured.
As early as 2000, she said Madam Justice Mary Lou Benotto of the Ontario Superior Court had warned that "each day that goes by creates more and more risk that these children will be further alienated from their father and consequently permanently harmed."
However, K.D. carried right on cancelling sleepovers that were planned at the father's house, or vacation trips to New York, Quebec City and Niagara Falls. K.D. even refused to let him drive the children to school unless she was in the car as well, Judge McWatt said.
She said the children lost the capacity to make independent decisions about interacting with their father. In her 2008 order, Judge McWatt said K.D. must turn over the children's clothing, passports and possessions. K.D. was also ordered not to harass the children or go within 300 metres of them.
Judge McWatt described the mother as immature, evasive and completely lacking credibility. She said K.D. precipitated physical confrontations with her husband and berated him in front of the children. Eventually, the father was reduced to shouting good night to his children through a door at his estranged wife's home in the hope that they were there and could hear him.
Commentary by the Ottawa Mens Centre
A very RARE decision that makes headlines, because it is so rare. Note that
the father can afford to litigate, most fathers cannot.
This matter was litigated because the father could afford to and lower court
(Ontario Superior Court) judges knew he could and would appeal successfully the
usual anti father decisions.
The Citizens of Ontario Need To Know, that our judges generally have a
pathological hatred towards men, they generally have a willingness to do
indirectly what they cannot do directly.
Example, the Government won't appoint sufficient judges so, nudge nudge wink
wink, we hire you , do what you have to do, make cases go away.
In Ottawa some 70 odd cases were set down for trial in February, ONLY 4 made it
to trial, and 3 were dealt with by "summary judgment" a draconian measure giving
generally a mother "everything" she asks for and, permanently preventing the
father from ever asking for a variation of that order.
Two Ottawa Judges make more of those sorts of corrupt orders than hundreds of
other judges combined, they are Justice Allan Sheffield and Denis Power. Their
decisions are dealt with at the Ontario Court of appeal by their Madam Justice
Katherine Feldman who makes MORE Anti-Father decisions than any other judge in
the Ontario Court of appeal.
There are a variety of "dirty judges" in Ontario, they are used by "supervisory
judges" just like Criminal organizations use "hit men" to dispose of "problems".
You can't complain to the judicial council, they have a set of Rules that means
virtually all complaints will be not even accepted or decided in the judges
favour.
The number of such judges also referred to as, "dirty judges" or "the worst of
the worst" or "the worst judge ever" exceeds One Per Cent by a large margin yet,
its unheard of for a judge to be dismissed or removed.

D A D - The word DAD is Canada's Dirtiest word - The word D A D is a dirty
word because we have "dirty judges", specifically, the underbelly of the
population who are not behind bars for child abuse or fraud, they engage in
child abuse and fraud on a habitual daily basis.
The legal expression is called "the process of justification" thats the same
justification that Criminal Gangs use for the "elimination" of those that they
"decide" to "remove". Also known as murder and assassination.
The worst practitioners of revolting illegal acts are Ontario Family Court
Judges, appointed because of their probability of making politically correct
feminist decisions.
Ask any Family Lawyer who qualifies as a "specialist in family law" and IF they
trust you, in confidence they will tell you Family Court Judges do NOT make
"Legal decisions" according to law, they make
"political decisions".
Most property decisions, custody and or access decisions, spousal support
decisions are made on GENDER and of course "STATUS".
Judges are generally born with silver spoons protruding from their rear ends,
brought up to have a contempt for anyone who is not of "their class". They are
in general, (with many exceptions) the most unsuitable personalities to be
appointed to the bench where once issued with "absolute power" abuse that power
by; "not reading the pleadings" they become "LAZY JUDGES", they have a hatred
towards litigants FEMALE OR MALE who are "POOR" or who can't afford to pay a
lawyer, which in their mind is the worst sin of all deserving of draconian
orders to "get rid of them" in the say way one would approach removing RATS from
your basement.
Fathers are in their view VERMIN to be exterminated.
Now again, if you doubt these words, just ASK any experienced family lawyer who
has "the scores on the board" and they will confirm the accuracy of these
comments.
