	The Recent Republic Debate-A Chronology: 1989-1998 (Background Paper 11 1997-98)
		29 July 1992 A debate between the republicans and the constitutional monarchists was held at the Queen Victoria Building in Sydney and the Sydney Morning Herald described the debate as 'fighting in an extremely civilised manner.
		There is no intention to push a particular view or argue either the republican or the monarchist cases.
		If Parliament so wishes, then let the Prime Minister begin to put his republican principles into practice(117)

	The Holden Republic: Monarchist Infighting: Some thoughts
		As Conal McPhillips said in his 'Final Word' on the debate, it seems that the Monarchist League relies only on its very own 'dogmatic conservatism' to justify the continuation of the Monarchy.
		In this sense, the Monarchist League is actually a Royalist orgainisation, that is, believers in Monarchy above all else, irrespective of their democractic (or other) principles.
		Irrespective, I think (or maybe hope) that most Monarchists are more pragmatic, or perhaps realist in their thinking - they support the monarchy because they believe that it fundamentally protects the very democracy and liberties we supposedly take for granted.

	Monarchy-Free Canada - Ottawa Citizen 4/11/02
		"For over 30 years, this debate has been dominated by one side, the Monarchist League of Canada, a group established to strengthen Canada's ties to the monarchy," Mr.
		John Aimers, dominion chairman and founder of the Monarchist League of Canada, said recent polls place Canadian support for a constitutional monarchy at 68 per cent.
		Her enormous popularity has been seen as a major asset for monarchists; polls conducted in Britain after her death have shown a surge in support for the Crown.

	Commonwealth Realm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The republican debate in such countries is thus more complicated, both in terms of the political and cultural ramifications that a change to a long-standing monarchist status quo could bring.
		Previously, republican status was incompatible with Commonwealth membership, prompting Ireland to withdraw from the association on formally declaring itself a republic in 1949.
		Establishing republicanism in the remaining realms is often hampered in large part because of previous long disputes over constitutional issues and reforms (especially in Canada and Australia) and thus a reluctance to enter into the extensive constitutional renegotiation that would be required to establish a new political system.

	The Australian Republic Issue: A Guide (Blueprints)
		A monarchist looks back at the February 1998 Convention and the arguments of the republicans.
		("The Convention must not be confined to a confrontation between the Australian Republican Movement and the Australian Constitutional Monarchists.")
		As a result, the Convention was not a confrontation between constitutional monarchists and republicans, but a struggle among the republicans on the breadth of constitutional change."

	John Bryden MP
		: I infuriate the Canadian monarchists by suggesting that every new immigrant to Canada means one new republican, and virtually every death in Canada means one less monarchist.
		UNIDENTIFIED: Canada will be a constitutional monarchy way beyond the lifetime of anyone listening to this broadcast, I would predict, because on the merits of the Crown the debate is clearly for the monarchy.
		UNIDENTIFIED: This is the armorials of the Monarchists League of Canada, commonly called the coat of arms.

	The Holden Republic
		The Republican Movement advocates the inclusion of all New Zealanders in the republic debate as one of its fundamental principles.
		A republic could be established in New Zealand by the simple expedient of amending this provision to replace the Sovereign with a President, as the section is not entrenched.
		This is evidenced in New Zealand by the selection of Keith Holyoake, former National Prime Minister, (and a sitting Cabinet member at the time of his appointment), former Labour Mayor of Auckland Dame Catherine Tizard, and former Labour party activist* Sir Paul Reeves.

	Rona Joyner: 7. Const. Conv. Qld. Election Results Analysed
		It is important to note that some voters unwisely elected both a Republican and a Monarchist delegate, perhaps vainly hoping that diversifying their vote would somehow create an enlightening debate about the various benefits.
		Likewise the outcome would have been more Monarchist delegates, if Monarchist teams had given their early Preferences to ungrouped Monarchists instead of increasing the republican vote by putting some, who showed no loyalty to our Constitutional Monarchy, ahead of others who did.
		Aroney would have been the 12th delegate to be elected.

	The Holden Republic
		During the 1999 Australian republic debate, the McGarvie model was a popular alternative to both direct and indirect election of an Australian President.

		Published after ALP Prime Minister Paul Keating's republican overtures in the early 90s, Turnbull sets out the politics of the republic debate in Australia, options for a republican President and required amendments to the Australian Constitution.

	Canadian Monarchist News:
		A more robust view of the Crown came from Carrolyn Parish (Lib: Mississauga Centre), as she attacked the Bryden amendment for being an overloaded "smorgasbord." She continued, "I agree with the member opposite that this is not the place or the time to debate the relevance of the monarchy.
		The separatist Bloc Quebecois voted unanimously against the republican proposal!
		I think when we do so we repatriate the oath of citizenship, because new people coming to this land realize that it is Canada that they are coming to, not Britain, not to some foreign monarch, not to the British monarchy.

		Senate debate on the Committee Report was opened the next day, June 18th, by Chairman Lorna Milne, who stated that she herself had some reservations about the Bill, calling Royal Assent "a fine piece of theatre and more Canadians should know about it."
		His views about the Bill's danger was astonishingly, to those familiar with his republican views supported by Senator Marcel Prud'homme (Ind-Quebec), who professed himself "a profound traditionalist, attached to the British parliamentary tradition."
		Once again Senator Grafstein came to the attack, moving that the Report not be accepted but referred back to the Committee for further consideration.

		On Germany& urging, Finland had declared itself independent from Russia on December 6, 1917, (recognized by Bolshevist Russia on January 4, 1918), and there was a fierce debate on whether the new state should declare itself a republic or remain a monarchy.
		Germany& defeat in the war, and the stated fact that none of the allies would ever accept a German-born prince as the king of Finland, led Frederick to finally renounce the throne on December 14, 1918, and subsequently for Finland to also adopt a republican constitution.
		The adoption of a new monarchist constitution had been delayed, and the legitimacy of the royal election was based upon the Instrument of Government of 1772, adopted under King Gustav III of Sweden, when Finland had been a part of Sweden.
