Man oh man ... I can't believe I am reading all this from my fellow Canadian brothers! We used to be a colony and currently a member of the Commonwealth, except it! Embrace our past! Yes, she has no say in policy and politics and just sits there, but she really is a unifying force for a lot of people around the world regardless of race and creed. The British have done a lot of good all over the world and in this country. Without the Queen, or the Crown, we would loose a lot of our tradition and history. For one thing, our Westminister model would not exist without her because there would be no Crown. Without her, many things, the simplest things will have to change like "The Queen's Printer" and our money. And, boys and girls, if you look inside your passport, it says that you can find safety at a British Consulate overseas if a Canadian one does not exist. Secondly, I think when a new citizen is sworn in, they swear allegiance to the Crown and finally, if you are a civil servant, you also swear loyalty to the Crown. Her Highness is every where ... embrace her and be proud of our British and French and Native and American roots, it is part of who we are!
God Save The Queen!!!
