#REDIRECT [[James Canis]]
Cadet '''James Canis''' is currently awaiting his Academy Cruise.
 
==Appearance /  Personality==
James is tall, skinny, even gawky.  He feels entitled to a successful career in Starfleet and doesn't care who knows it.  He's smart but not shy about showing his brains off.  He's not very sensitive to other people's feelings--in fact, he's pretty much oblivious to a great deal of the important parts of social interaction.
 
==Family==
* '''Parents'''
** '''Father''' Lt. Cmdr. Andrew Canis (ret)
*** Andrew Canis retired as Chief of Staff for Commander, Utopia Planita Shipyards.  He was an engineering officer for most of his career.
** '''Mother''' Chief Warrant Officer Hyacinth Canis (ret)
*** Hyacinth Canis spent her entire career at the Starfleet Bureau of Personnel.
* '''Siblings'''
** '''Sister''' Lt. j.g. Grade Maggie Canis (ret)
*** Maggie Canis was assigned to USS Enterprise straight out of the Academy.  She was seriously injured in 2379 during the engagement at the Bassen Rift with Shinzon and received a medical discharge in early 2380.  She works in a security position for a private shipping firm.
** '''Brother''' Lt. Cmdr. Ethan Canis
*** Ethan Canis is a medical officer at Starfleet Medical on Earth.
 
The Canis family have served in Starfleet since it was the Earth Starfleet.  While never producing prominent officers like the Archer, Kirk, or Paris family, the Canis have a home in Marin County, the traditional residence of Starfleet families, filled with souvenirs from across time and space.
 
Maggie Alexander was the daughter of a laborer and a substitute teacher who still live in Vladivostok.  When she enlisted in Starfleet she saw it as a way to improve her lot in life--and achieve social standing.  She zealously guarded the privileges of rank through her career at BUPERS.
 
Maggie courted the attentions of the son of a Starfleet family when she was a crewman and he was a layabout tinkerer.  Andrew Canis only joined applied to Starfleet Academy at his wife's behest.  Her ambition drove his career.  Maggie was never able to be a "Starfleet spouse" because, while officer-enlisted marriages do not violate fraternization laws if the couple is married before the officer attains a commission, they are still frowned upon and both Maggie and Andrew did not want to draw unfavorable attention.
 
When James was ten, his father's ship was almost destroyed by the Borg in the Battle of Sector 001.  Fearing for her husbands safety, Hyacinth was able to procure Ethan an assignment at the Utopia Planita shipyards, which was increasing production in the aftermath of the beginning of the Dominion War.  Ethan loved the job and spent the rest of his career there, eventually becoming Chief of Staff to the shipyard's commanding officer.
