Example, Mr. and Mrs. John Smith

I hate this for the obvious reasons but it’s especially annoying to me because my wife didn’t take my surname!

    She could have done it through the regular name changing process like anyone else (which involves fees and a lot of paperwork to make sure all records are updated everywhere).

    It’s just not legal to do it as part of the wedding process like it’s done in other provinces.

      Oh, so it’s one of those cases of the Quebecois trying to make life shitty for Anglophone culture.

        Eh… What? You realize French Canadians outside Quebec still do it and French Quebecois did it before the law changed?

        Keep your racism to yourself, thanks.
