“The purpose of an interim parenting order is to provide stability to the children and the parties pending trial. It has been long established that the status quo will be maintained on an interim motion for a parenting order unless cogent evidence that the best interests of the child dictates otherwise: Papp v. Papp, 1969 CanLII 219 (ON CA), [1970] 1 O.R. 331, para. 34.
The status quo may be established by reference to the parents’ practice or the child’s routine prior to separation, by any consensual arrangement made after separation, or by court order: Gray v. Canonico, 2020 ONSC 5885, para. 48.”
