	Arguments for Monarchy - Canadian Monarchist ONLINE
		The Constitution of Canada declares that the Government of Canada and the Commander in Chief of the Forces are vested in the Queen.
		Constitutional monarchy allows the celebration of public social events, such as the marking of collective anniversaries and the bestowal of honours, to be free of the taint of partisan politics.
		When she is not in Canada, the Governor-General exercises the Queen's prerogative powers, as empowered by the Letters Patent issued by King George VI in 1947.

	The Monarchy, the Conservatives, the Future, and Canada
		The monarchy by contrast represents a holdover from "old" Toryism, and an era in which conservatives rallied against the "latent republicanism" of their political opponents in a heavily labored attempt to keep their North American nation firmly in the colonial cultural mindset, with preserved "British" values.
		Much of Canada's early history was dominated by attitudes of staunch and illogical anti-Americanism among political elites, an often mindless and undemocratic allegiance to the British Empire at the expense of Canada's own interests, and an economic legacy of failure due to blatantly anti-market protectionism and massive state intervention.
		The monarchy is an icon of this latter class, and not the former.

	Uni.ca -- Modernizing Canada's Monarchical System
		Continuous repetition of the mantra that Elizabeth II is the "Queen of Canada" is unlikely to modify this perception.
		The modernization of the monarchy in Canada need not be a put-down of the Royal Family or a rejection of our monarchical traditions.
		All the crown's prerogatives in Canada, both in the written Constitution and by convention, would be transferred to the Governor General, avoiding a debilitating debate over their definition.

	Charles A. Coulombe: Religious Basis of Monarchy
		The latter episode in the light of the former is, to this Yank, laughable.
		The first two are common to Britain also, viz: a) the Monarchy is undemocratic, and b) that the Queen's offspring are behaving in a feckless and immoral manner.
		European Monarchies did very well with the concept of "indirect rule," because the local rulers' postion could be made analogous in law to a feudal lord's.

	Imperial Canada
		In the near future, Canada could very well be polarized between these two extremes, those in favour of preserving the status quo versus those in favour of establishing a republic.
		Canada's continued links to the British Royal Family are the major cause of Quebec's agitation for independence.
		Canada would finally come into its own as a cultural identity and, perhaps, many of the people of Canada who have emigrated over the years would be convinced to come back.

	Frequently Asked Questions
		Although Canada and the United States combined would take up the vast majority of North America, there are no reasons why a North American Union could not be expanded in the future.
		By definition a merger is a joining of two things, and in the case of Canada and the US this amalgamation would not be one of two equal partners like so many politicians like to claim.
		The Monarchy would obviously have no place within a United North America, as it truly is an antiquated system of government that serves no real purpose in the 21st century.

	Monarchy-Free Canada - Federal Political Parties (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		With polls showing Quebecers 72 - 76 percent in favour of abolishing the monarchy and BQ leader Gilles Duceppe saying he's opposed to monarchy in Canada - calling it a "genetic lottery", we can probably safely assume that the Queen would not be a part of the government of an independent Quebec.
		As far as the rest of Canada is concerned, the Bloc does send MPs to the federal parliament and should a parliamentary vote on removing the monarchy ever be held, most Bloc MP's would likely either vote in favour or abstain.
		The NDP's Social Democratic Forum on Canada’s Future, presented as a preliminary report to the party's Federal Council on January 30, 1999 and discussed at the National Convention from August 27 to 29, 1999, goes further than any of the three major federalist parties toward being in favour of Canadianizing the head of state.

	The Monarchy Today > Queen and Commonwealth > Canada
		Canada is a parliamentary democracy and constitutional monarchy with The Queen as Sovereign.
		As a constitutional monarch, The Queen abides by the decisions of the Canadian Government, but she continues to play important ceremonial and symbolic roles.
		In all these duties, The Queen acts as Queen of Canada, quite distinctive from her role in the United Kingdom or any of her other realms.

	CBC - Canada Votes 2006 - Leaders and Parties - Issues
		His decision to move back to Canada in the summer of 2005 was greeted by breathless profiles in national publications, with his future as leader of the Liberal Party of Canada taken for granted.
		He was named Time Canada's Newsmaker of the Year for 2001 because of his performance as foreign affairs minister in the wake of the 9/11 attacks against the United States.
		Handicaps: He was roundly drubbed for questioning the value of the monarchy to Canada while Elizabeth II was in the country on a royal visit in 2002, and for fumbling the question of whether NHL teams in Canada needed a federal bailout.

	Monarchy in Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As Canada's laws governing succession are currently identical to those of the United Kingdom (by the Statute of Westminster) see Succession to the British Throne for more information.
		The Queen is Queen of Canada, not Queen of Ontario, Queen of Quebec, Queen of British Columbia, etc. She is, of course, Queen in all these provinces.
		A Loyal Toast is also performed at official functions whether or not the Sovereign is personally present; it consists of a toast to the health of Her Majesty the Queen, and is usually performed by the host or guest of honour at the ceremony, aside from the Queen herself.
