Not legal, but it does exist. The community of Bountiful, in BC, has a polygamous Mormon culture there, where one man has 20 wives and over 100 children. There are other examples of polygamous 'marriages' but none quite as blatant as this.

Illegal & yes, that group in Bountiful, B.C. totally doesn't count in this question. Their "leader" is a wanted felon, uhh, guess that goes right back to that illegal bit.

Not legal here but there is a cult in eastern BC that practices it. They are called bountiful.

Some people may be deemed for tax purposes to have two spouses at once.

It's EXTREMELY ILLEGAL.
But we all know it happens in some areas and I'm not sure what law enforcement agencies do about it.
