The nightmare of paperwork and the cluster fuck it creates for tracking people made Quebec's government change its stance on the subject in 1981 and since then people who want to do it when they get married have to go through the same process as they would have went through to change their name for any other reason and if I'm not mistaken on government IDs the women's married names were changed back to their original name.
