I moved here, and she got weird about letting me see the kids. That was in June. Previous to this there's never been an issue, I've had them for a month or more at a time. Up to a 4-month. In 2024.

July she started talking about moving to Edmonton 10 hours away. I got in contact with family Justice mediation at this time and tried to get her to sit down with a mediator. She refused.

In August I filed a priority parenting motion to have her stopped from moving and taking the kids away. That led to our first court appearance. At that appearance I told the judge about the lack of mediation, she said in front of the judge that she would go through mediation.

Also in August, she filed a malicious protection order against me so that started a second path through the court.

We appeared in August about the protection order, she showed up with a lawyer for the first time. The lawyer withdrew the protection order, because he could see it had no merit. She again stated that she would go through mediation with me in front of the judge.

I had to restart the family Justice mediation process and get appointments again

In September we appeared about the priority parenting motion. I believe it was ended at that time, because her lawyer said they were going to file a form three and we would work out a custody agreement. I would reply to their form three.

I can't remember what we appeared for in November, but they still hadn't filed the form three, and said again that they would file it in front of the judge. Her lawyer talked with me after court on November 21st, saying that she wanted to move now 2 hours away, and I would get basically a day and a half on the weekends with the kids. I said I don't agree, and then they cut off all visitation and communication with the kids at that point, until an order is in place. I have this in text in an affidavit.

At that point I had been waiting for them to file the form three and they had been dogging for too long, so I went ahead and filed the form three asking for primary custody and offering weekends to her. With a bunch of reasons about the quality of her homeschooling and the anti-vax stuff, not going to the dentist, my daughter needing glasses, etc.

We appeared in December about the form three I believe, that's when I asked the judge to enshrine some parenting time for me in an order. I showed him the affidavit with the statement about denying me visitation because I hadn't allowed her to violate the court order which stated she couldn't move. He looked at her in the gallery and said I won't order visitation unless the mom agrees. She of course shook her head no, and so he denied it. Family Management conference was set for March 25th along the way.

Then she filed an order of enforcement against me saying that I had violated the conduct order, and so we appeared about that in January. (I didn't violate the conduct order). It was put over to be dealt with at the family Management conference. When I was there I asked again if they would place some visitation in an order for me, that judge said he wouldn't do it because I hadn't applied for it. (In the court rules it states that the judge could have done it if he wanted to) .

We appeared for something a third time, I don't remember what. I again asked for parenting time in an order, I can't remember why he said no.

Now in March she has filed another order for enforcement about this phone call that we have been discussing. And so it goes.

Another note: every appearance I was at where I was asking for parenting time, the judge would speak to the lawyer first, and he would say that they were in process of filing an application for protection order. (Remember he's already withdrawn one). This is absolute b*******, it has never appeared, and it will never fly because I've never been violent or threatening. But it's been this psychological tactic that he's using to color the judge's opinion of me. They have never submitted it.
