The following excerpt is from Children’s Aid Society of Toronto v. S.N., 2013 ONCJ 345 (CanLII):
[51] Too casual a regard for time has the insidious effect of consequences that cannot be undone. A parent may position herself in a “no chance of success” zone. To be too tardy is to create a gap that may be too wide to be bridged within the legislative criteria that governs determination of the application as a whole. See CAST v. F.C. [2012] OJ. No1079
