I live in Quebec, Canada. My brother lived in Ontario, Canada. He was removed from my mother's care when she threatened to kill herself and him ( this was not the first time of this) and was arrested. My father entrusted him in our care for the summer. The arresting police officers called CAS (Children's Aid Society) and after an investigation, my parents were told that my brother could not return to their care. My mother is currently on bail living with my aunt and she was told that she is emotionally abuse, manipulative, and my father is volatile and neglectful and both parents have a history of domestic violence. My brother was left in our care through CAS. My husband and I would like to keep him in our care and would have to petition the court for custody or else my brother could be removed from our home and placed in a home that my parents would like to live, if deemed suitable.

Do you think we should file? And if so, how do we go about doing this? I am completely lost and do not know what is best for my brother at this point....
