Im a member of UELAC United Empire Loyalist Association of Canada

The Loyalist equivalent of the DAR, SAR...

There are also many other Americans who are members

As Americans we do not have to take/sign the oath to the Queen part of the application...

However although I can hold most offices in the society I cant be the president because that one post requires the oath to the Queen...

Im OK with that..

BTW before I was allowed to become an American citizen, I had to renounce all other associations and my loyalty to my prior counry, New Zealand...

That Irish thingy is phony...

However, Kristina Dragaitis, the counsel for the Attorney General of Canada, argued if new Canadians are not willing to comply with regulations, they should not be able to access things such as a passportCanada.

There. Much better with a little change.

It does set an unfortunate precedent if these non-citizens bring about the change in Canadian law. Not that I think they will however. They certainly don't know their manners.

I came from England to Canada and found for example that one cannot quaff a can of beer in an Ontario recreational park. They would certainly tell me where to get off, if I told them I could do this in merry old England and why not here? I just adjoin to the local watering hole, if I so need a drink.

There is an underlying lesson for us all here and I include our American friends. No longer do some immigrants from some awful environment, come and toe the line.They should be grateful to join in and yet hold a few reservations if they wish. They have been told by someone, (wonder who?) society must conform to THEIR practices.

A bit of a ramble for which I hope to be excused.
