(via Della Wolf is B.C.’s 1st child with 3 parents on birth certificate - British Columbia - CBC News)
“A Vancouver baby has just become the first child in British Columbia with three parents listed on a birth certificate.
Three-month-old Della Wolf Kangro Wiley Richards is the daughter of lesbian parents and their male friend.
"It feels really just natural and easy, like any other family,” said biological father Shawn Kangro. “It doesn’t feel like anything is strange about it.”
B.C.’s new Family Law Act, which came into effect last year, allows for three or even more parents.
Della’s family is the first to go through the process, and they finalized the birth certificate registration last week.
B.C., which is celebrating Family Day on Monday, is the first province in Canada with legislation to allow three parents on a birth certificate, although it’s been achieved elsewhere through litigation.”
the better (not harper) side of canada.
