does special authorization actually matter or is it forum lore at this point

Discussion

Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud.

The advice on Canada in this community changed substantially around the start of last year, and nobody went back and updated the older posts. So depending on which thread the search engine hands you, you get two contradictory answers with the same confidence.

I have listed what I think the current consensus is below. Correct me — that is the point of posting it.

Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.

Removed a chain here.

Adding to this: formulary is doing more work than the comment implies.

This is correct. Name your province.

Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
