CCQ-1991 - Civil Code of Québec

Full text
577. Adoption confers on the adoptee a filiation which succeeds the person’s pre-existing filiations.
However, in the case of an adoption by the spouse of the child’s father or mother or of one of his parents, the new filiation only succeeds the established filiation, if any, with the child’s other parent.
Although there may be recognition of the adoptee’s pre-existing bonds of filiation, he ceases to belong to his family of origin, subject to impediments to marriage or civil union.
