    I didn’t know Canada has law governing names. Where I live it’s free for all. A kid even named “Karantina Covidah” by their parents for fuck sake.

      The above is for Quebec only, which has a completely different civil law system (a mix of common law and Napoleonic civil code), and does not apply to the rest of Canada.

      From what I can tell, Quebec has laws for just about everything.
