I copied this from the Wikipedia article about "Name Change"

"In Canada, a person may informally say what they want. When someone gets married, they can change their surnames legally changed their names without using their marriage certificate as verification of name change. As the U.S. conditions for an official name change varies from province to province except Ontario, British Columbia and New Brunswick. Canadians must be 18 to change his name and lived in the province, they are in the process of at least 3 months to a year depending on the province. (In New Brunswick and British Columbia, Canadians must be 19 years to change its name, Ontario 16.) People younger than the age of the majority of provinces can change their name if they have their consent guardians are legally married or have a common law marriage. for a name change for a change of name must be submitted to the Department of either Government Services, the Court of Justice or marital status. Documents like birth certificates must be presented. A statement explaining why the name is changed is necessary in most areas and the reason must be serious. In Canada, a name can be confusing, be used for misrepresentation or fraud and in most cases, the name change was announced in newspapers. There are fees involved and it varies from $ 10 to $ 185 depending on the province or territory. British Columbia and Alberta need fingerprints to be submitted before a change in their name "

I do not know why they publish it in newspapers, I've never seen that before. But if you decide to change your name just because you're bored of it, I do not think they let you. Good luck!
