@R MacR the mere presence of a monarchy, symbolic or otherwise, undermines democracy.

@R MacR the monarch brainwashes you into thinking that didn’t it

Ahh, you mean the Royal Seal, formally the honours list. Why has it changed? Because any increased spending has to go through several gov departments. Where as the Royal Seal offers less transparency, as it no longer has a long chain of checks and balances, and, as such, can rise exponentially in secret. Also, when adding the cost of transport, maintenance, security and many, many other secret costs the Royals upkeep is more towards £350 million. A far, far greater cost than the MSM will let on.

We shouldn't be paying anything for a fucking queen across the ocean who does nothing for Canada.

More because all the costs of the republic would be entirely borne by Canada. Whereas most of the cost of the monarchy is borne by Britain as the monarch actually resides there.

nope. Being a republic is better than having a monarch because these monarchs think they are above the law and they do a lot of unlawful things especially the sons of elizabeth. I f you know what I mean.

Without the monarchy all those land and profit will return to be under private family ownership.

Most people living in constitutional monarchies don't really love or even care about their monarch but most have neutral opinion about them and prefer "status quo." Australia have a referendum on whether to keep the constitutional monarchy or become a republic in 1999, the republic lost because the republicans have different choices on whether the ceremonial president will be elected by popular vote or by the parliament. Barbados did the referendum and they will become a republic this year, the Queen can't do anything about it.

@@johnnyelle8052 exactly

@@johnnyelle8052 he was just making a point, did you expect an in encyclopaedia length of literature. Don’t be so pedantic.

What are you talking about. What qualifications do you have by being born at the right time in the right place? I'll answer that: none.

I'm not Canadian so a pinch of salt. I'm British. The Crown of the two realms is a bond amongst the peoples connected through history, culture, ancestry and ideals (this goes for ALL including more recent immigrants. Once you identify to a nation, you become part and have a share of the legacy. It's not an 'apart' in which you pick and choose which part of history, ancestry and traditions is comfy for you. You don't have to agree or justify but neither could you absolve yourself of it. You can't enjoy the cream and say you had no part in squeezing the cow's tits...). In 1812, the Americans challenged this bond by invading British North America under their pretences (including 'liberation from the Crown'), all the while simply to aid their French ally Napoleon in Europe by opening a second front in the Americas. (Regardless of what's taught now, about 1812, in the US and the PC Canadian education system not wishing to offend the neighbour...) The Canadians stood firm for their Country and their corner of the Empire then (the biggest chunk of British regulars were in Europe at the time, fighting Napoleon. The Canadian natives and native allies did what needed to be done for their own land and sake.). This was the beginning of what would become the Dominion that would fight and die with their brothers across the world, inc. two World Wars, to defend these bonds and ideals. Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK etc etc were all superpowers as parts of a whole. It is sometimes a sad thing, for me, to think that these bonds, reinforced in the trenches and horrors of wars, in the triumphs of nation building, are slowly being eroded over the years. From my perspective, US Americans are cousins, but Canadians are brothers...

She is from a Canadian perspective, (I'm a young Canadian) a reminder to what we have and always will be as a nation and culture. That being a nation born out of loyalty to the crown. A culture steeped in British values and traditions. Of whom without we would be lost both in identity and purpose. Admittedly she is like a Supreme grandmother to me personally. But there is no doubt that Canadian identity would be irreversibly damaged without its love for the queen. And anyone who'd disagree is either an American, a foreigner, or French.

One of the worst phrases: “We’ve always done it that way”

Yea, people like you want to only remember what's good about traditional value.

If you really believe in democracy, the presence of a feudal lord should be unacceptable.

Canada pays for the Canadian monarchy. The Civil List doesn't exist anymore and was a purely British thing. They use the Sovereign Grant now. In Canada, the institution of the Crown is funded by taxes. But, that's no different to how any president's office is paid for.

@@bayousbambino427 so u don't pay for them, the UK does. You pay for the governor general, who is the de facto vice president of Canada

@@nostromo2244 lol No, the governor general is not a defacto vice-president. Marks for originality, though. I've never heard that error before. The governor general is a viceroy; he or she can exercize nearly all the powers of the monarch. A VP doesn't get to use the president's power. And, what does "pay for them" mean? If you're referring to the Royal Family, we do indeed "pay for them" when they're performing duties at the request of Cabinet. We pay for the residences they stay in when they're here; the planes we fly them around in; the security that surrounds them, etc. It's UK tax payers who don't "pay for them". The Sovereign Grant is not tax money. It's a paid-back portion of the profit off the Crown Estate that the Queen gives over to her British treasury every year. Indeed, she anually adds some 300 million pounds to the public purse, which more than makes up the cost of security; the only thing Brits pay for with taxes.

Canada pays 45 million a year for the monarchy

When would you be ever expected to 'take knee' to anyone? Even in front of the Queen, you'd have to be getting a knighthood to rest your knee on a cushioned prop. In any case, when a person is knighted in any of the realms (I'm in UK), the honour is from the nation which the Crown represents, not the person representing the Crown. If a nation was to honour me in such a way, I would rest my knee on that cushion regardless of whether the representative of the state was called a president, lord governor, prime minister or queen. Taking a knee in respect and/or subservience, I reserve for my parents and religion...

Good for you! Thank you for swearing allegiance to our Queen!

@Joe Ang ever heard of something called respect?

@Joe Ang that doesn’t even make sense?

@Joe Ang I am saying you bow to the monarch out of respect and honour

Modern views of nationality (with undercurrents of racism in some cases) prevails with these types of arguments. Even in the UK, the Royal family is disparaged by being called 'German'. Even if the next monarch of the Canadian realm from the House of Windsor was born and raised in Canada, a republican will still call them 'British'... A lot do not really grasp all this 'royal' subject. Even in England, a lot do not realise that Richard Lionheart, one of the most famous of English kings, didn't speak English as a first language and was barely in England during his reign. He wasn't even buried in English soil...

@Harvest Moon Homestead The Queen doesn't have much power to execute such actions. She doesn't have much power on politics. And I believe that if she ever does act in that manner, it will only urge her subjects to abolish the monarchy as a whole. That's why the royals are very cautious when making a move.

@Harvest Moon HomesteadThe queen can technically declare a war against our archnemesis France to restore her claims on normandy or China to revert the trade surplus right now at her own pleasure. This would however cause a political crisis worse than the English civil war and will very likely cause the abolishment of monarchy. Our monarchy today is bounded by the constitution and the parliament after glorious revolution. The ruling monarchy is checked by the parliament and can be deposed if necessary. The British with the constitutional monarchy enjoyed stability in our politics and society. The head chopping jacobins in France had only ended with decades of politically instability and constant shift between republic and absolute monarchy.

@@BasedApricot France is still a monarchy under the disguise of republic. In 1870, the Third Republic was born and since the French have grown tired of dictatorial directorial (where the presidency rotates within the council), consulate, and presidential systems so they decided to vest most of the powers to parliament then president is ceremonial, in short, parliamentary system. This system cause political instability in both the Third and Fourth Republic where government changes in less than a year and slow to respond when it comes to crisis like WW1, WW2, and Algeria. In 1958, Charles De Gaulle theorize that there must be a central figure with enough political powers to unite the country and respond faster to emergencies in order to stop the political instability, so he shrink the parliament's powers and ballooned the president's powers. A Fifth Republic executive president almost haves the same powers as an Ancien Regime absolute monarch with the difference that he's elected and that the parliament still haves some powers (but still, most powers are in the president). That's why some says that France's president was some kind of "elective king," or "republican king" lol.

a eternal royal blood line are dictators...

@Mike Dessal trust me Monarchy or no Monarchy you don't want to do that

Y’know you can still have military alliance without a commonwealth. And the fact you called it “England” only accentuates your ignorance.

The UK is not England. It's not the 1700s anymore. England does not have a Queen. The UK does, and so does Canada. England hasn't had a King or Queen for well over 200 years.

@Pop-Actor (Rick) Nothing to do with the royal family , besides he’s a fringe member and will never be king

It is a lot more than tradition and respect. It is a system of government; and one that both keeps absolute power out of the hands of politicians and limits the person who actually holds that power. Tradition and respect are fine. But, they're secondary to the governmental benefits of constitutional monarchy.

This is an uneducated opinion. Do you even know what individual rights are? You don’t have individual rights in a monarchy. You cannot choose your leaders, you cannot participate in policy making. There would be no such thing as an economic dream if you were born in a poor area. You can be drafted into any war just because you were born in a family with no nobility. Even if you become a noble, you cannot oppose the monarchy for fear of being executed without trial or outcry. And if there is an outcry for your death, more people die instead of laws changing.

Then say it's part of history

@@stevenmcalister826 Slavery is synonymous with rich plantation owners. In fact, if we're going in absolutes, I would argue that slavery would be more synonymous with republics. A significant amount of support for the American Revolution came from southern slave plantation owners, that isn't to say that the American Revolution wasn't backed by popular support, it was, and there were genuine (albeit very flimsy) grievances against the British Government. Another example, when Brazil became independent from Portugal, it was a monarchy, the Empire of Brazil. However, there were only two people to hold the title Emperor of Brazil, the last was Emperor Pedro II, who reigned from 1831 to 1889. Emperor Pedro was an opponent of slavery, and freed his palace slaves, but he couldn't do anything about it because the plantations owners held significant power in Brazil's Parliament. Eventually, the liberal abolitionist faction passed a law in parliament, which banned slavery, and the Princess Regent Isabel signed it (her father, Emperor Pedro, was in Europe at the time for a surgery). This aggravated with the planter class who disliked the abolition of slavery, so much in fact, that they conspired with a group of disgruntled army officers to overthrow the monarchy. A coup was launched, the Princess Regent and the Imperial Family were forced to flee the country, and join the Emperor and Empress in Europe. Emperor Pedro refused to join any attempts at a counter-coup. The Republic of the United States of Brazil, was politically dominated by the army and the planter class, but now, there was no monarchy to keep them in check.

@@konstantinosnikolakakis8125 The monarchy has no right to “keep people in check” they weren’t elected. Wether the parties in the republic were right or wrong by our standards today, they were still elected, the monarchy wasn’t. And if parties weren’t elected then it’s not a republic.

and boy did she long live, hope shes rip her majesty, even tho we have a king now, the queen will always be in the anthem for me..

no, she is useless. even in england! lol

@MsMissy this is a grown up observations. Only a child could think we "need" a queen across the ocean.

@MsMissy no, you are completely wrong. Canada doesn't need a "queen of England". time to ditch her.

She isn't any better than any one else !!!!

@@johntiedemann7725 no she's not but she is a figure of unity. She gave us the ability to be a constitutional monarchy. And she was the head of state to 8 major contries for a long time. Every royal has to serve military combat service as well. So yeah she's no different than anyone else but she deserves respect for all she's done for the people of the commonwealth and her family has done for Canada. So be more respectful she doesn't have power over are country and doesn't cost canada any money she is large part of are contries traditions. So why be so ignorant and try to get rid of her.

@@carterchurchill4137 in a word !! Freedom !! That's why !!

@@johntiedemann7725 bud you literally have no idea what your talking about we have freedom as I have stated in every comment the queen has no power not even the governor General has any power. Its a traditional role for are country. If you want to get educated and have a educated conversation about this topic I would love to but you are talking honestly out of your ass and have no idea what your talking about. If you as you said "freedom" go to the United States u would fit right.

@@carterchurchill4137 the USA More free than Canada ?? You are on glue !! We need to take this left wing dictatorship and all their minoritys And ship them to somolia permanently And return Canada and the USA Back to white only countrys

Then if she hate Australia so much how about she drop them

Eu = 4th Reich whuch wecare nor part of nowcand there putting a European army togeather now which they promised they wouldn't do, 1939 again 😬

@Brussels For Dinner 😂Actually Canada cares the least about her & her useless monarchy......she is clinging onto Canada cuz little Britain is reduced to an island corner of europe with no power. “Across the pond”? It’s called the Atlantic Ocean dude & it’s a huge ocean......this phrase is nothing but british people kissing up to Canada & USA !!

@R MacR ??? It was Britain that got saved twice in WW1 & WW2....you would be speaking German in your little island by now so humble yourself. You did absolutely nothing for Canada, it’s a frontier society after all where every ethnic made a life here !!

@@kevinmaroon1093 WW1? No. The war was already won by the point americans came, they came wayy too late the french and British had won the war, GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!

We should put a statue of John Alexander Macdonald in every indian community to remind them who won the war.

Last I checked this was Canada, not the Iroquois confederacy.

@@CANADASOCCERMAN13 wtf is wrong with you?

@@CANADASOCCERMAN13 then what happened to his idea to conquer the world ....your hero lost his life in our hand baby.....

absolutely 100%

they dont pay anything for the monarch

Without your flag and President... you're just Canadians. Think about that.

Referee? Some rando stranger who don't understand our way of life or policies should play referee? There are other systems of government that work no need to be under a constitutional monarchy. Shall we then lay responsibility to Charles and then William? And years later George? It's ridiculous, Canada is capable of being on our own.

@@Ladyrocksavage but British is our motherland and roots.

@@asephd677 Nope.

@@Ladyrocksavage we share the same roots, value, and ancestors. There's nothing wrong with constitutional monarch, unless it absolute. Did you think we will better when became the Republic?

@@asephd677 We don't. And yes I do. The queen should not be meddling in Canadian law or politics which the Constitution gives her the right to do. Why should some random woman who is only there because her father's sperm met her mother's egg first. Makes no sense especially in 2021.

European?

@@mandingodestroyer3104 Nope. Canadian.

@Jeepman89 In that case you would be escorted to the Tower of London as you are a bloody republican.

You have a referendum vote.

@@lordsaviour5912 What are you the saviour of?

@@danmar007 Of the Crown.

no, that is so stupid too.
