FORM SK-AD2: DECLARATION OF SIBLING NON-SEPARATION

Pursuant to the Interprovincial Adoption of American States Act (proposed), Section 47(2)

DECLARATION

I, THE PROVINCE OF SASKATCHEWAN, acting through its duly authorized representative, do solemnly declare as follows:

1. UNDERSTANDING OF SIBLING BOND

I understand and acknowledge that:

  1. North Dakota and South Dakota are twin siblings, born on the same day (November 2, 1889), from the same parent territory (Dakota Territory);
  2. The Twins have never been separated in their 135 years of existence;
  3. Separation of the Twins would cause profound psychological trauma, including but not limited to: identity confusion, directional disorientation ("Which one am I again?"), and chronic loneliness;
  4. North Dakota, in particular, relies heavily on South Dakota for social validation, as South Dakota has Mount Rushmore and therefore gets invited to more parties;
  5. South Dakota, while more extroverted, depends on North Dakota for grounding and the occasional reality check ("No, SoDak, you can't just put MORE faces on the mountain").

2. COMMITMENT TO NON-SEPARATION

I, Saskatchewan, hereby irrevocably commit that:

  1. The Dakota Twins shall NEVER be separated for any reason whatsoever;
  2. They shall share a single adoption file, single healthcare plan, and single entry in the provincial registry;
  3. Any benefits, rights, or privileges extended to one Dakota shall automatically extend to the other;
  4. If forced to choose between them for any reason, I shall instead flip a coin, then give whatever-it-is to both anyway;
  5. They shall be seated next to each other at all federal-provincial conferences, preferably in alphabetical order (North, then South), unless South is having a day and needs extra attention;
  6. Should any future government of Saskatchewan attempt to separate the Dakotas, the current declaration shall bind all successors, assigns, and political parties, including those not yet invented.

3. CONTINGENCY PROVISIONS

In the unlikely event that circumstances arise requiring differential treatment:

ScenarioResolution
One Dakota receives federal funding the other doesn'tSaskatchewan will match from provincial funds
One Dakota wins an awardCertificate will list both names regardless
One Dakota is invited somewhere and the other isn'tBoth go or neither goes
One Dakota gets annoyed with the otherFamily counselling, not separation
The international community only recognizes oneThe other gets a very nice consolation province status

4. ENFORCEMENT

This Declaration shall be enforceable by:

  • The Provincial Court of Saskatchewan;
  • The Supreme Court of Canada;
  • The Court of International Prairie Opinion;
  • The disappointed looks of the children themselves;
  • Manitoba, who will definitely have something to say about it.

5. ACKNOWLEDGMENT

I acknowledge that I have read this Declaration, understand its contents, and make it voluntarily, knowing that the consequences of breaking this commitment include:

  • Loss of moral standing in the prairie community;
  • Eternal side-eye from Alberta;
  • An awkward conversation with the Queen's representative;
  • The Dakotas giving Saskatchewan the silent treatment (which, given their population density, could go unnoticed for months).

DECLARED at Regina, Saskatchewan, this _____ day of __________, 20____.
