'He needs his mom': Mother fighting to have son returned to Canada

The investigation into Oscar Maillard marks a stark turnaround in a complex legal saga that previously saw his ex-spouse of 10 years, Elizabeth De Swart, jailed briefly for her own failure to take the couple's Calgary-born son back to Spain.

The see-saw battle between Maillard and De Swart underlines the legally and emotionally fraught difficulties of child-custody disputes that cross international borders. Although the boy had spent almost his entire life in Calgary, a Court of Queen's Bench justice sided with Maillard on July 2, 2019. Justice Barbara Romaine ruled the child was habitually resident in Spain - a country he had lived in for less than two months. The judge would not grant a stay of her order pending an appeal, De Swart says, and gave her just four days to take him to Alicante, Spain. Romaine issued a Canada-wide arrest warrant for De Swart on July 10.

Instead of obeying the order, De Swart headed to The Netherlands, where she has relatives, in hopes Dutch authorities would intervene in her favour. They refused. After police knocked on her grandmother's door, De Swart turned her son over to his father on July 24, 2019, in the southern city of Breda, and came back to Canada.
