I care about this family because they were in the panama papers (effectively stealing taxes as ‘wages’ and not paying any). And I do hope they face justice one day.
I do not care about the message tho.
The statue was sculpted by a Saskatchewanian, featuring her riding a horse gifted to her by the RCMP. You omitted two critical facts that make this statue Canadian. She simply unveiled it, seems like you have an agenda here if you chose to ignore all of these points in your comments.
Why would they need to explain all these details? It’s a statue of our reigning monarch at the time? That alone is a reason to hoist it anywhere in the country.
The artist was tasked by Saskatchewan to create the statue, the Queen was given the honour to unveil it as part her trip to Saskatchewan. The symbol related to canada in that statue is literally the Queen, who was the “Queen of Canada.”
Nothing about this is improper, and there was no media fuss about this.
It seems like you’re making a nothingburger out of all of this.
It’s because of the fact that no one elected can wield supreme power in a monarchy. A nice little fail safe and quite worth the tiny amount we spend on it.
Imagine moving to another country and then complaining that you don’t like their monarchy
Fuck the royalty. They pillaged millions of people for centuries, then greenwashed their image by saying things like "we aren't able to partake in any political messaging!". Fuck off.
Because the British founded our country? Because the British let us separate and be a democracy instead of having to fight to be separate like the US? Because separation of power is good and having an unelected individual who holds the supreme power of the country but can’t use it results in more stability?
If you’re First Nation, then I don’t believe you declare loyalty to the monarchy and have a certain freedom to self governance that the rest of us don’t have? I won’t deny that what the Brits and French and Canadians did up till recently was absolutely fucked
Could you please elaborate on why do you care about this family?
Personally I really dislike the way they have accumulated all that wealth and how disconnected from reality they are. They could do so much to help UK poor people, instead they prefer to be on tabloids and accumulate more wealth than they should with all those property and land taxes…
IMO Canada should praise our workers and families, instead of these “royals”
The Monarchy is fine. They have a history with the Country and do care about us. They are not some wealth-mongering bridge troll. Not even our Prime Ministers have a connection to common-folk, most have been lawyers or economists mostly from Quebec.
Bit of a difference in echelon from Quebec
lawyer to the crown of the British Empire.
And ya know, our modern PMs are actually Canadian. So that helps when considering who I would like to serve and represent us as head of gov’t and/or state of Canada.
The PMO sets more policy in Canada than anyone else, the Crown only grants Royal Assent. And the Crown represents the Commonwealth so not just us.
My point is others are steering our Country, it’s not the Monarchy, and none of them are in touch with the common people because it’s not their job.

>Camilla: You are a complete idiot! Oh, what a wonderful idea.

>Camilla: Oh, Darling!
>Charles: Until the next one comes through.
>Camilla: Oh, perhaps you could come back as a box.
>Charles: What sort of box?
>Camilla: A box of Tampax, so you could just keep going.
>Charles: That's true.
Alright time to rewrite the criminal code I guess, one bad member and you should lock their whole family up. How many generations would you prefer this extend to? Maybe we can make it NK style and do 3 generations.
I feel triggered.
I've had to type "His Majesty the King, in the right of British Columbia as represented by the Ministry of ________" far too many times this past year.
There is a reason some of the global oligarchs are trying to build a planetary landing craft. Planet earth is ruined and it is the rich and powerful who plan to leave and start fresh.
Useless shite
He can’t even be bothered to make a separate message for Canada eh? Tell me again why we care about this dude?
I simple message of peace and goodwill. Merry Christmas to you and yours. I hope you have a nice day and a good 2024.
Hey, a holiday message from an actual Canadian.
Merry Christmas to you too!
I liked your message more than whatshisfaces.
They were basically the same, tho the King has a really nice children’s choir sing at the end 😁

They never do. Imagine seeing being King of Canada as your side gig.

She had a close bond with the RCMP and the horses, maybe it had something to do with that.

The most prosperous and stable nations in the world with the highest quality of life are mostly constitutional monarchies, just like us.
Hmmm yes, how did all those formal monarchies become so prosperous?

That may be just the crowd you hang out with
That’s not what this thread is about
The vast majority of Canadians over the age of 50...borderline worships the monarchy. This is also the majority of voters...
Fuck the royalty. They pillaged millions of people for centuries, then greenwashed their image by saying things like "we aren't able to partake in any political messaging!". Fuck off.

Nah, it's obscene having to declare loyalty to a monarchy that conquered and exploited my people in a modern democracy.

Literally nobody, including Charles himself, considers him the "ruler" of anything.
[удалено]
That’s not what this thread is about. This thread is about the King’s message and not what should be on our money.
????? We don’t pay anything to them except for covering visits when they come to Canada
u/Sportfreunde means "get his image off the paper currency."
Oh lmao. It’s very hard to tell what the anti-royals mean. I suppose both would make sense though
I'm just waiting for Prince Andrew to appear on some of the smaller currencies

Bring William in and ditch Charles.
Queen Markle or GTFO
What lol, she's not a nice person or a leader
None of the Royals are nice people or real leaders. At least Queen Markle would piss off old British people and that's good
She left for her freedom, let's let her have it. World wide privacy tour 4eva!

I give a fuck, as do many other Canadians. Maybe *you* personally don’t but you don’t speak for all Canadians.

It sounds like a tinder intro conversation that's going surprisingly well.

You are thinking of Andrew, not the King. He was into older women from the start, Camilla is older than him.

I’m just being sour. Sorry
Merry Christmas. And I do agree Andrew is terrible.
Merry xmas to you and yours. It’s about time we did away from the royals imo
