Furniture is largely replaceable. Sentimental stuff is generally not.

how is that even possible??? how can anybody transfer the title of the house
based on fake ID's??
Are canadian ID's so easy to fake?? are they made out of cardboard with no tampering protection????
Do notaries simply not check for valid official ID's?
