Legal Question in Family Law in Canada

visiting another country

my girlfriend and I wish to go on vacation to another country, but the father of her child apparently has to give permission to allow the child to go, and unfortunately he cannot be located since he is rarely in the childs life. Is there a way that we can still legally take the child to another country for vacation?
