3 Adults In Polyamorous Relationship Declared LEGAL Parents By Courts - First For Canada

Canada makes news and becomes THE FIRST (yet again) in LGBTQ rights

In what is believed to be a legal first in Canada, a court in Newfoundland and Labrador has recognized three unmarried adults as the legal parents of a child born within their "polyamorous" family.

Polyamorous relationships are legal in Canada, unlike bigamy and polygamy, which involve people in two or more marriages.

In this case, the St. John's family includes two men in a relationship with the mother of a child born in 2017.

"Society is continuously changing and family structures are changing along with it," says the decision, by Justice Robert Fowler of the Newfoundland and Labrador Supreme Court's family division.

"This must be recognized as a reality and not as a detriment to the best interests of the child."

The April 4 decision says the unconventional family has been together for three years, but the biological father of the child is unknown. The family members are not identified in the decision, which was released Thursday by the court.

Watch for an interview.

Wonderful that Canada is yet again at the forefront of LGBT rights, unlike the USA which is going backwards

Jealous American bitches?

Are all these "polyamorous relationships" about saving rent money?

Nfld is probably the most un-sexual place in Canada.

This is great news, now men will be able to have multiple wives, and that's always good for the women involved as well as society at large.

by Anonymousreply 10June 21, 2018 3:03 AM

Jesus said it should be only 2 people!

So just marry one. And then in a few years divorce and marry your 2nd partner. And then next decade divorce again and marry your 3rd partner. And then divorce the 3rd partner, in order to be allowed to re-marry your 1st partner again. Because you feel nostalgic and realise the 1st one was the best! Rinse and repeat.

Many people (especially the rich) fuck around on their partners anyway. It doesn't matter if polyamory is official or not, it's already here & happening.

what about a same-sex couple who co=parents with the sperm donor or surrogate

by Anonymousreply 29June 21, 2018 3:19 AM

Surrogacy is officially banned in many European countries - so a 3-way co-parenting arrangement actually makes sense in that context.

by Anonymousreply 30June 21, 2018 3:20 AM

if there was ever 3-way sex, the two guys probably played with one another, while having sex with the girl at the same time, so it does fall under LGBT

Incorrect. It doesn't make sense to still have (consensual) bigamy as a FELONY with a potential prison sentence. It's OTT.

Bigamy is never consensual.

We live in a word where recording public sex for pay (porn) is legal (US), prostitution and escorting is legal (most of Europe).

But 3 people marrying (particularly bisexuals) - hell to the no!

by Anonymousreply 49June 21, 2018 3:46 AM

So let's get this erm straight.

If a man has two wives is bigamy or polygamy. Uncool when white trash or brown peoples do it.

If a woman has two husband it is polyamory. Or polyandry, but that's not so cool and hip.

Got it?

Every self-proclaimed polyamorous person I’ve ever met - and there have been many - has been a duplicitous and promiscuous snake of a human being. Most had obvious underlying psychological issues, including personality disorders. They should all be on a registry so the rest of us can avoid them.

Unless people are willing to keep detailed family records, this is going to cause a social nightmare 30 years down the line with people inadvertently fucking their half-sibs/rellies.

Are they as hideous as 'poly' 'familys' usually are?

I can't tell from those pics but they don't look as overweight as those types usually are, although the woman does have that horrible half shaved hair cut (probably dyed blue).

Perhaps this is what happened to bunnika? Canada has decent disability benefits doesn't it?
