Section 92(12) of the Constitution Act, 1867 gives the provincial legislatures the power to pass laws regulating marriage. The provinces have set 18 or 19 (depending on the province) as the age for marriage, with a minimum age of 16. Those between 16 and the minimum age can usually marry with parental consent, but that is not necessary if you have consent from the court.
