What part of Sharia law is that? Shouldn’t the UK be preparing to join the Caliphate?

When will Canada stop pretending like they are still part of the British Empire?

It’s all about tourist dollars and a lack of hardcore national identity.

Like the King is chosen by public opinion. Must be that great Canadian Public School system.

If the Queen’s on your money, it tells me something.

Elizabeth II and I are the same age.
She seems to still be going strong, as am I.
William may be 47 by the time this issue arises.

Like the King is chosen by public opinion. The Royals aren't dumb. Keep the public happy, and the public'll keep footing the bills. My ancestors bugged outta Britain in the 1600's. They weren't big on royalty, but whatever floats yer boat :)

America is a republic. We are a constitutional monarchy. The Queen is just as important to us, as the republic is to you folks.

elcis? LOL! Just kidding!
I'd not mind seeing Prince William succees Queen Elizabeth II. He seems like he's pretty level headed for a man of his age.
Not to mention he's a bit more like his late mother than Prince Charles.
Of coarse, what do I know? I'm just a Yank anyway LOL! Well, part Canadian so I guess that makes me sort of QEII'S subject.

That,s a good question.
It seems strange that people would grouse about being under the rule of a monarchy so much so that measures are taken to overthrough that monarchy.
Then the people start whinging that they want a King or Qeuun to rule them again. Or, if not that, they become fascinated with a monarch of another country.
I really don't get it.

And British royalty today are mere tourist attractions and nothing more. They have no say, no power, no nothing. They're just "special" people in nice clothes...nothing more.
And people care that one special person will be appointed king over another special person.
No wonder I drink.
