g_bambino Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 See...I knew you would eventually come around. Cling to your queen if you must...it's OK. Will do! And you keep up your bizzarre fables... it's okay, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Will do! And you keep up your bizzarre fables... it's okay, too. I know....Canadians buy millions of tickets each year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g_bambino Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 I know....Canadians buy millions of tickets each year. And that's all the approval you ever wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whowhere Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 But that's what Americans do...stretch it as far as we wish. We don't have to worry about permission from a Queen or Governor General.See the difference? Gee, I wonder who you can thank for that? Rhetorical of course. Good of you to provide the queen link to help educate the demented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whowhere Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Right up there with your theories that First Nations did not have a language - only emitting sound like crows because their language didn't have a written form - and that God spoke through Jacques Cartier when the word "Canada" was invented. Canadien is that you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good of you to provide the queen link to help educate the demented. No problem....I found it curious that Her Majesty has a web site with a UK domain to advertise her sovereignty over Canada. Seems to me that the "Queen of Canada" could pop for a Canuck domain addy too...she has the cash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoliticalCitizen Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 "By adhering to the monarchical principle we avoid one defect inherent in the Constitution of the United States. By the election of the president by a majority and for a short period, he never is the sovereign and chief of the nation. He is never looked up to by the whole people as the head and front of the nation. He is at best but the successful leader of a party. This defect is all the greater on account of the practice of reelection. During his first term of office he is employed in taking steps to secure his own reelection, and for his party a continuance of power. We avoid this by adhering to the monarchical principle - the sovereign whom you respect and love. I believe that it is of the utmost importance to have that principle recognized so that we shall have a sovereign who is placed above the region of party — to whom all parties look up; who is not elevated by the action of one party nor depressed by the action of another; who is the common head and sovereign of all." That might have been relevant in 1867. I can't think of anyone I know (and I came to know quite a few people) that would dedicate any thoughts to, much less respect and definitely don't LOVE the queen of England. I do not believe English Monarchy really represents the will of Canadian people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canada, the political parties, and the supreme court does not have a history of listening or doing the will of the people. If that is the history why would Canada change now? Besides good luck getting the people in Canada to agree on anything. As for your hate of the Queen, you better learn to love her because you have pledged your allegiance to her. I suggest you look the word up. As it is, you have sold your soul to the devil. For what gain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you will be glad to know that the last Queen of England is centuries dead and that there's no English monarchy to represent the will of the Canadian people.

I did swear allegiance. That was for the gain of Canadian citizenship. My questioning of whether Canada should continue being a Monarchy does not break my oath. I love my country Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
