MN1 Evidence of the parents’ country of habitual residence

I am applying for registration of UK citizenship for my adopted child. I am living in Canada with no plans to return to the UK for a number of years. My question - What documents are required to satisfy "Evidence of the parents’ country of habitual residence?" Does a gas bill suffice? Or is something more official necessary?
Thanks in advance

Evidence of living in Canada. Utility bills perhaps, and your Canadian adoption records should also show you're living in Canada, but what about:
- Copy of your provincial drivers licence/ID card
- Copy of your PR Card or Canadian citizenship certificate
- Copy of your Canadian federal/provincial tax returns.
- Copy of provincial health plan enrolment details
- Printout of your Canada/Quebec Pension Plan contributions record showing employment in Canada
- Copies of bank account statements showing activity in Canada
- Evidence of renting/owning property to live in (copies of lease documents, property tax returns, etc.)
- After that, more fact-specific but obviously copies of any employment records, wage slips, school enrolment records, etc.
And so on.
