I've been watching the news about the Queen's Jubilee tour of Canada, and someone in power there (the deputy prime minister?) said he didn't want her, but was shot down by virtually everyone else in the country. I was curious as to how our Commonwealth compatriots on this board feel about the subject.

thats what i wanted to hear!
Generally, us Canadians don't really give a hot damn. Other than her face on some of our money, we don't really pay much attention to her.
I personally don't give a fuck. She comes here, and does some stuff.
I mean, wtf does the Monarchy do? Aren't they just diplomats?

Wait! No! That's not an answer. I..is he?

Ozius
Not that I really care, it's not like she decides anything for the country
Although I'm not sure how much of an improvement Jean Chretien is, heh
who?
* Queen Elizabeth II
* Some unknown bugger that either a) Parliament, or b) the people voted for
The answer was simple : The Queen - It keeps with the tradition of our nation, as well as keeping ties with our 'mother country'.
But in the end, it's not all that important. If we changed to a Republic tomorrow, we'd still live and be the same people we were today.

What power does the king/Queen Have at all? I thought they were just like figureheads?
They have influence and people cry when they die. They are rich too.

Wouldn't surprise me if Charles never ascended to the throne.

The monarchy is more or less just a figurehead with no real governmental power, right?

Ja'Deth Issar Ka'bael had this to say about Punky Brewster:
Mort and the Brits probably know more about this than me, but the last I heard, there was a question of whether or not Charles ever would be King. Logically, when the Queen dies, Charles is the next in progression, but I always thought they had to be confirmed. Some people think it'll go directly to Di's son, but word is that he isn't so hot on the idea.Wouldn't surprise me if Charles never ascended to the throne.
Charlie is the rightful heir. Charlie is a good reason to put up a referendum to go for complete independance.

That's about right. Who'd want a buncha inbred potheads genuinely ruling their country? [ 10-08-2002: Message edited by: Dr. Pvednes, PhD ]

The only way William will get the monarchy is if Charlies dies, and then he'll probably just abdicate in favour of pothead Harry.

I thought Charles couldn't Be king because he is Divorced? Didn't Like the Act of Succesion say no Divorcees could inherit?

Vorago was naked while typing this:
I thought at one point Canada said 'Screw you!' to the queen
John Manly (Oy, what a name, eh?) basically said that he didn't want to be under the Queen's rule and instead break off from it.
Our next king will be a stoner.
He's also well-organized, and tidy. And he's not a doper. Soooooo...
MORT FOR KING!
