2008-03-04 Order on motion to adduce new evidence, (BY BINNIE J.)
2008-03-04 Decision on motion to adduce new evidence, Bi, This appeal involves the rights of a 14-year-old child. She is a Jehovah’s Witness. She suffers from Crohn’s Disease, a chronic inflammation of parts of the gastro-intestinal tract. On Wednesday, April 12, 2006, she was admitted into hospital after suffering an internal bleed. In the early hours of Sunday morning, April 16, 2006, she suffered another internal bleed, which decreased her hemoglobin count to the point that, in the opinion of the attending medical personnel, she was faced with an imminent and serious risk to her life or health. The hospital wished to give her a blood transfusion but both she and her parents refused to consent to the receipt of any blood or blood products on religious grounds.
The Director of Child and Family Services of Manitoba then applied to the court under s. 25 of The Child and Family Services Act, S.M. 1985-86, c. 8 (C.F.S.A.), to authorize qualified medical personnel to give blood transfusions despite the refusal of consent.
By order dated April 16, 2006, Kaufman J. on the basis of the medical evidence of Dr. Lipnowski, concluded that without a blood transfusion there was “immediate danger as the minutes go by, if not death, then certainly serious damage”. He acknowledged that the child was mature and did not consent to a blood transfusion; nevertheless, he granted the treatment order because in his view the blood transfusions would be in the child’s best interest.
The issue became moot shortly thereafter when a blood transfusion was administered. On appeal from Kaufman J., the Manitoba Court of Appeal concluded that while the issue was moot, it was capable of arising in future cases and would almost always be moot before an appeal could be taken. The Court of Appeal therefore proceeded to hear the appeal and held that the order of Kaufman J. complied with both the C.F.S.A. and with the Charter.
The issues on the appeal to this Court are said to be as follows:
(1) Do ss. 25(8) and (9) of the Manitoba Child and Family Services Act displace the common law principle relating to mature minors who are nevertheless in need of protection to override their refusal to essential medical treatment, and
(2) if so, then have any of the mature minor’s rights under the Charter been violated and if so, are those violations justifiable?
The applicants/appellants now seek to introduce as fresh evidence the affidavit of Dr. Aryeh Shandar, sworn May 25, 2006, to respond to the medical evidence of Dr. Lipnowski that formed the factual basis of Kaufman J.’s ruling on April 16, 2006. Had Dr. Shandar’s evidence been available at the time, they say, it might have affected the decision of Kaufman J. to grant the order he did.
While I recognize the very strong religious views of the applicants/appellants, and their firm belief that the original order was not properly made, my view is that the proposed evidence of Dr. Shandar has no relevance to the issues to be argued on the appeal. This Court will not retry the factual case before Kaufman J. The argument on appeal is that given the evidence before Kaufman J. the order ought not to have been made as a matter of law having regard to the mature child’s clearly stated wish to refuse the blood transfusion.
The applicants also seek to have this application to admit fresh evidence decided by the full panel of the Court at or following the hearing of the appeal scheduled for May 20, 2008. In my view I should deal with the application now. I believe the proferred evidence is irrelevant and destructive of the factual basis of the appeal on which leave was granted. I conclude that the motion should be dismissed without costs. The dismissal, however, is without prejudice to the right of the applicants if they so desire to renew the application for the admission of this fresh evidence to the full panel of the Court at the hearing of the appeal on May 20, 2008. If admitted, arrangements can be made for cross-examination and the subsequent filing of transcripts in the usual way.
Dismissed, without costs

2007-09-12 Decision on motion to strike out, Bi, UPON MOTION by the respondent for an order expunging from the application for leave to appeal the affidavit of C.(A.) (Child), the reasons for judgment of Goldberg J. (June 28, 2006), and the order of Goldberg J. (June 28, 2006) and any reference to the said materials in the application for leave to appeal;
