The text states that "most people in a common-law relationship eventually marry," which suggests that Canadians view cohabitation as a prelude to, rather than a substitute for, marriage.

Option C, changing laws that make cohabitation the same as marriage, may suggest legal recognition of cohabitation, but not necessarily societal views towards it. Option D, the number of common-law relationships that break up, does not provide evidence of societal views towards cohabitation.
