Charles III is, by the Grace of God, King of Canada, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith, Blackfoot chief Red Crow and Ojibway chief Leading Star

@JijiRotelli @EliotPence Nor was he elected to hold a minority government. We don’t elect PMs at all. We elect Members of Parliament, of which Carney is just one, and they in turn express their confidence.

@Lousanabill @alanfryermedia @bcndp The feudal order supported faith and family far more than capitalism has or does.

@SherrieLyn70699 @nationalpost Ontario basically has the same representation in the House of Commons as Alberta does.

@HoCStaffer What a contrast to the PM’s Savile Row tailoring.

@mketabchi @RoyalFamily Just a reminder that the lands that evolved into Canada have been monarchical since the founding of New France in 1534, and our first Governor was Charles Huault de Montmagny from 1636 to 1648.

@kevcontabby @RoyalFamily @GraemeMenzies Prof Nelson Wiseman: “I don't think the monarchy costs anything. If we got rid of the monarchy, we'd have to have a head of state. If we don't want to call a head of state a GG, if we want it to be a president like Barbados just opted for, fine, we'd have to pay for that office.”

@GeoObserverX @RoyalFamily Utter nonsense. God save the King, long may His Majesty reign over our blessed Dominion.

[Ut incepit fidelis sic permanet @RedCrow1534]

@Simon111xyz @implmaterial Indeed. But as King of Canada, not as King of the United Kingdom.

Here’s a Chuck Buck:

@DrMichaelBonner No. There was a plan long before that horrid design to construct an actual Crown of Canada, but QEII requested quietly that it not proceed.

[Ut incepit fidelis sic permanet @RedCrow1534]

@Simon111xyz @implmaterial Two different meanings: a self-governing dominion (which we were until 1931); and the Dominion of Canada, from Psalm 72:8 (KJV) “He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.” In other words, God’s dominion.

[Ut incepit fidelis sic permanet @RedCrow1534]

@Simon111xyz @implmaterial Au contraire (as we say in Québec), the Crown of Canada has been sovereign and independent of the UK since 1931. We are our own, independent constitutional monarchy. The King of Canada can only be advised by His Majesty’s prime minister of Canada, Monsieur Carney.

@arjunswritings It’s true. If you had a shred of honour, you would renounce your Canadian citizenship.

[Ut incepit fidelis sic permanet @RedCrow1534]

@JB_Goldstein @CanadianAesth Canada had become its own constitutional monarchy five years before this, with the Statute of Westminster 1931. We are not ‘without the monarchy’, we are a constitutional monarchy,

@theoeides4 I understand why.

[Ut incepit fidelis sic permanet @RedCrow1534]

@theoeides4 It was before his conversion. I recall he led a dissolute youth before being drawn to Manichæism and then converting. Or perhaps the dissolute living and Manichæism overlapped. I’m recalling this from undergrad, many years ago.

[Ut incepit fidelis sic permanet @RedCrow1534]

@DavidCan2002 That’s utter nonsense about minimal representation. Alberta has basically the same population per riding in the House of Commons that Ontario does.
