Did you attempt to marry a party in which you had no right to do so ?

Ref:

Pretending to solemnize marriage (http://canada.justice.gc.ca/cgi-bin/folioisa.dll/FSTATS.NFO/query=[JUMP:'C46_000R!2EF00294']/doc/%7B@1%7D?firsthit) 294. Every one who(a) solemnizes or pretends to solemnize a marriage without lawful authority, the proof of which lies on him, or(b) procures a person to solemnize a marriage knowing that he is not lawfully authorized to solemnize the marriage,is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years.
