I agree with this definition. Now, centering on the Canard issue, any
comments about "Deep stall"? I guess you fall in a more or less
stable attitude but fall anyway and if I am not wrong it is a very
difficult situation to ge out of.

 This is caused by too far aft a CG.  Can happen on any airplane with
an aft CG.  A few have been recovered, usually by moving the controls
in synch with a natural oscillation about one of the three axes.  WIth limited
control authority it has been possible to build on the natural oscillation
and eventually work the aircraft out of the stable deep stall.

I would NOT recommend this if you have ANY other options.  Obey
the recommended CG limts.
