Travel consent letters aren’t only for minors travelling alone or with people other than their parents. If a child is travelling with only one of their parents, they should have a travel consent letter.
At any given time, Canada deals with an estimated 300 cases of parental abductions. The letter proves the legitimacy of the travel and protects the travelling parent from further investigation.
When the child is travelling with both birth parents, a travel consent letter is not necessarily needed. One should be carried following circumstances:
They are travelling with only one parent as that parent is single, separated or divorced.
They are travelling with parents who have different last names.
The parents are travelling together but will travel separately with the child for a portion of the trip.
The children are travelling alone or with a school, tour groups, sports team or social group.
The children are travelling with grandparents, other family members or friends who are accompanying children without their parents present.

Gifting a vehicle to a family member

Transferring the ownership of a vehicle to a family member is common in Ontario. It is important to note that the family member must be a spouse or partner, parent, child, grand parent, sibling or in-law in order to be eligible for this form of transfer. The benefit to this transfer is the buyer does not need to pay retail sales tax to transfer the ownership into their name. In order to complete the transfer you will need the following items:
  • Proof of auto insurance in Ontario 
  • A valid drivers license for the new owner
  • The vehicle ownership permit
  • A safety standard certificate within the last 36 days (please note: this is not required if the transfer is to a spouse)
  • Emissions test completed
  • The plate transfer declaration, you can  receive from Service Ontario
  • Sworn Statement for a Family Gift, you can receive from Service Ontario
Typically the easiest way is when you bring all these items and both family members go together to Service Ontario to sign the ownership over. That’s it!
If you and your common-law partner are planning to immigrate, we are sure you must have come across the term Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union.
So, what does it mean? Moreover, how important is it for your application?
To put it simply, for your common-law partner, it is vital. In order to prove your common-law relation to the immigration office, you will need to submit the Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union along with other required supporting documents.
Therefore, without any delay, we should dive into the discussion about the statutory declaration.
What is the Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union?
Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union, also known as IMM 5409, is a type of immigration application form. Someone who wants to sponsor or include their common-law partner/spouse in their immigration application must use it.
The declaration is an oath or swearing the applicant, and the applicant’s common-law partner must take it.
The form is also required for any immigrant applicant seeking sponsorship, permanent residency, and temporary residency. It will help the common law lawyer to understand and determine the applicant’s eligibility.
Furthermore, in some cases of sponsorship, the common-law partner needs to co-sign in the undertaking form. Thus, having a Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union works advantageously.
International Recognition and Formulation of Religious Freedom.
Freedom of religion or belief is explicitly recognized in international law through the UN Charter; the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights; the Helsinki Accords; the Declaration on the Elimination of All Forms of Intolerance and Discrimination based on Religion or Belief; the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms; the African Commission on Human, and People’s rights; and in many other institutions’ working policies.
The two most famous declarations about religious freedom are found as Article 18 in the Universal Declaration of Human rights (UDHR), and as Article 18 in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
The ultimate goal of freedom, religious freedom, and other freedoms as well, is love.
Fundamentally, religious liberty, religious freedom, or freedom of religion or belief, according to the international legal nomenclature, is an indispensable and incontrovertible tool for developing awareness in delineating the parameters of what it means to be human and humane. While considering freedom of religion or belief from legal, political, social, and cultural perspectives, our fundamental non-tradable and nonnegotiable thesis is that religious freedom speaks not only to the humanity of every person but also to the sacredness of human beings. This presupposition is the foundational pillar of religious freedom from a faith-based perspective. That is the spiritual root of religious freedom.
