Apppreciated.

And we appreciate the new subscribers who’ve been able to find us through this and other discovery-focused communities.

Glad to hear you liked it.

It’s so hard to keep track of shows when they’re only renewed after the season ends and the production timelines are so very long. That’s why it’s exciting to know that there’s a second show going into production and more in development.

Please do join in our weekly discussion threads on Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (aka M:LOM). Our community is just getting going and it’s grey to welcome other enthusiasts.

Not sure what specific canceled show you might be thinking of…

Monsterverse is specifically used for all the movies, comics, games, animated and live-action television made by Legendary (Pictures, Comics, Games, Television etc.) using licensed Toho Godzilla and other kaiju.

The Monsterverse continuity began with Godzilla (2014), then Kong: Skull Island and continued with several more cinematic features. At this point, with 12 years of releases, it is the second longest running continuity in the 70+ years of the Godzilla franchise, with the Showa era remaining the longest.

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, a partnership between Legendary Television and AppleTV, is viewed as a global success. Its second season is currently in weekly streaming release on AppleTV. It’s being very successful in attracting new fans and expanding the audience for Godzilla and other kaiju.

A second spinoff Monsterverse series focusing on Lee Shaw in a 1980s Cold War context has been greenlit by AppleTV and is starting production in June.

That said, while this community is featuring the Monsterverse continuity, we’re open to posts and discussions about all Toho, Toho licensed and related kaiju media.

Please feel welcome to post and comment about other eras and continuities.

The key thing is that this is disciplinary and after the fact.

Some municipalities in other provinces do have provisions for extras floors to be permitted beyond regular zoning in exchange for a number of lower cost dedicated accessible units throughout the building that have covenants restricting them to tenants or owners (in the case of condos) with disability certificates.

This model has been successful in creating lower cost affordable and integrated housing for persons with disabilities.

However, it’s intended to function as an incentive, with accessible units designed in on each floor in exchange for more floors. It’s not a remediation.

On the blood products recipient end, we want to ensure safety and ethics in the products people need to live.

Unfortunately, donations are not adequate such that Canadian Blood Services buys blood products to make up the difference.

A significant portion of the product purchased and imported into Canada from the United States comes from incarcerated populations.

Paying Canadians for plasma donations is an arguably lesser harm than importing plasma and fractionated blood products from incarcerated persons in the United States.

A healthy adult should be able to make plasma donations very frequently. This raises questions about what was happening in that donation centre’s screening and drawing procedures.

In fact, there is a long history, when the blood supply was less reliable, where parents of children with bleeding disorders often donated plasma biweekly in order to make sure their children had a safe and timely supply of essential coagulation factors.

Ensuring that the donations are safe both for the person donating and the recipients is nonnegotiable. It’s also however essential that we have the blood products available for those who need them and not condemn those with inherited bleeding disorders to disability due to insufficient availability of fractionated products.

Then, since it sounds to be clear and recent, perhaps you could explore citizenship by descent in an EU country where you have a legitimate claim.

You might do better looking for an actual ancestor born or naturalized in Canada.

You may be surprised.

Concerns about equity for adopted persons were raised by senators when the bill was being studied in committee. They let C-3 go through due to the need to address Bjorkquist but asked the Minister to come back with further amendments in future.

There is a different form and process for adopted persons adopted outside of Canada. Current processing time is about two years.

It involves two steps:

1. Confirmation of parent’s Canadian citizenship, which when completed provides a digital identifier to be used in step two
2. Applicant provides the documentation of the adoption and original birth certificate.

The text on the linked IRCC page reads:

If you choose to apply for citizenship, there are 2 parts to the process:

Part 1: We check if the parent can pass on Canadian citizenship to their adopted child.

Part 2: We check if the adopted child can become a Canadian citizen. See:

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadians/adopt-child-abroad/processes/choose-process/citizenship.html

Understand. Many of us are considering our dual citizenship options while they are available.

I can appreciate your concern.

Good luck. That should be fairly straightforward as you are only second generation descent.

No.

The 1095 day presence is a requirement should you wish to pass Canadian citizenship to a child born or adopted after December 15, 2025z

Long form birth certificates that name parents and marriage certificates to show name changes would cover it.

Baptismal certificates can be used when there’s no civil registration of births. Civil registration began very late in several provinces of Canada. There’s more likely to be an Anglican or Roman Catholic baptismal record regardless of being Indigenous.

You may be able to find ship manifests and landing records in Family Search or Ancestry. Those list nationality — you would be looking for her to be a British subject domiciled in Canada at the time she landed in Australia.

Your great grandmother’s death certificate may have information that could be useful, as they usually state the place of birth. Newspaper death notices and obituaries can also be helpful as supporting information.

Lastly Canadian and US census records can be used as supporting information.

There is no generational limit. However, a direct line of descent has to be documented back to an ancestor born or naturalized within the borders of what is now Canada.

Acadians in Louisiana have been successful in making claims back to the Le Grand Derangement / Expulsion by the British. They had meticulous records however.

It’s a concern the way the CPC MPs confabulated citizenship by descent with immigration during the committee hearings on the Bill.

The Government responded to the 2023 Bjorkquist court decision that found the first generation limit unconstitutional as a violation of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

C-3 establishes a requirement going forward: to pass down citizenship to persons born after December 15, 2015 a parent born outside Canada must have had a cumulative 1095 day presence in Canada before the child’s birth.

The C-3 changes were in response to the 2023 Bjorkquist court decision that struck down the first-generation limit on citizenship by descent. The Government had to bring in legislative amendments or the Court would have just struck the limit down as a Charter violation.

It was Conservative Party of Canada Harper Government that enacted the limit in reaction to air lifts of Canadians in Lebanon, calling them ‘Canadians of convenience.’

The CPC tried to amend the Bill C-3 to require a 1095 day presence in a 5 year period in order to past citizenship down to future generations, basically making it like the requirement for naturalization. Instead the law has a lifetime 1095 day presence to pass down citizenship to children born after December 15, 2025.

Having your grandmother’s birth is a great start.

You need to prove a direct line of descent by birth* back to your grandmother — assuming she’s the last generation born or naturalized in Canada.

So, her birth certificate would establish that she was Canadian if it’s from a Canadian province or territory. However, you will also need to demonstrate :

• that one of your parents was her child with their long form birth certificate with her name listed as their mother — if your grandmother’s family name changed in marriage, you’ll need a marriage certificate or other proof to show she was the same person;

• likewise, you’ll need to demonstrate that parent your parent’s child through your long form birth record and possibly your parents’ marriage certificate if claiming through your mother.

*Adoption unfotunately continues to not have quite the same process:

If you were adopted, and you are claiming citizenship through your adoptive grandmother, this is possible but it’s a two step process where your adoptive parent would need a Confirmation of citizenship first and then you could apply for a grant of citizenship.

If the parent you are claiming citizenship through was adopted by your grandmother, as the Act is now, they would not be able to pass down citizenship to you. They could get a grant of citizenship for themselves but it would only come into effect the day the grant is made and couldn’t only pass it down to their children born after the date of granting.

The headline and post summary are somewhat misleading in their incompleteness.

From the article:

The federal public service’s largest union has filed official complaints asking the government to “cease the unilateral implementation” of its early retirement incentive program until its parameters are negotiated with the union…

By offering separation packages to public servants to reduce its workforce, the employer is “bargaining directly with PSAC members on terms and conditions of employment,” the union says.
