In most circumstances, no. The legal age of majority in the US and most Western countries is 18. A 17-year-old needs parental consent to move out. There are a very few exceptions.

What is the statute of limitations on debt collection in quebec?

The Federal Government and the Provinces have Limitation Acts which provide a limit on the time an unsecured debt survives. If an unsecured debt is not collected or payments are not made on the unsecured debt then after a certain time no legal action can be taken to collect the debt. A March 4, 2003 decision of the Supreme Court of Canada, Markevich v. The Queen decided that limitations applied to CRA as well as other Crown proceedings. Section 32 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act and Section 3 (5) of the BC Limitation Act barred collection of the Federal and Provincial portions of the debt since the debt was more than 6 years old. NOTE:Before relying on the forgoing please check with an insolvency lawyer for the latest information. The Federal Government has the habit of rewriting the law when a court decision goes against them. Examples from various provinces and the Federal Government: * British Columbia - Section 3 (5) of the BC Limitation Act sets 6 years as the limit for debt. * Alberta - The Alberta Limitations Act sets 2 years as the term which is extended to 10 years if there is a judgement. * Ontario - The Ontario Limitation Act 2002 , came into force on January 1, 2004. It sets two years as the term (Section 4). This limitation will be reinstated where the debtor acknowledges the debt or makes a partial payment towards repayment of his debt. If the default occurred prior to January 1, 2004, the creditor will continue to have 6 years to pursue the claim. However, if the default occurred after January 1, 2004 then the 2-year rule applies. * Federal - Section 32 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act sets 6 years as the limit for debt. Aphex Twin

What are some Problems if Quebec separated from Canada?

This is an open ended question, meaning virtually every person may have a differentopinion on this question. Some of the most likely issues would be:

1) Money. Would quebec be able to use the Canadian dollar, which they are on record as saying they would, as it would provide a more stable (stronger) currency than if they create a new currency.

2) Pensions - What would happen to people who are entitled to Canadian pensions for having worked and lived in Canada all their lives; would they get a Canadian pension or would they have to have it converted into whatever currency Quebec creates, should it be required to create a new pension?

3) Native rights - Since native Indians in Canada have procured rights as citizens of their own native reserve as well as Canadian citizenship, would they be allowed to still maintain their traditional relationship with Canada or would some other arrangement have to be made with the Quebec government, as a new entity (country)?

4)Travel - What would be requirements of people traveling in and out of Quebec? Would they need a passport or other documents to gain access?

5) Trade - Would current trade issues and rules apply or would there need to be new rules/laws in place allowing for the fact that Quebec is now not part of Canada?

6) Military and Foreign Affairs - Would Quebec develop its' own army, navy, etc. or would remain some connection with Canadian armed forces?

Virtually every issue which any new country is forced (decides) to establish when itbecomes independent would be required of Quebec to address (deal with). Some have said that is why a new Quebec would need to continue what has been called sovereignty-association, with Canada, so that Quebec would be independent in some manner but still maintain ties (legal and cultural for example) with Canada in othere areas. This is an issue that would have to be decided by both Canada and Quebec shouldQuebec decide to form some form of independence or separation from Canada.
