Guest PPC2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Posted November 13, 2019 Canada doesn't live in a democracy. We live in a delegated democracy under a dictatorship. We live under a parliamentary-monarchy. Why do the British taxpayers spend millions of dollars to help a royal family live in billion dollar palaces? Isn't that worse than corporate welfare? Quote

If were spending millions to help maintain the Monarchy, why doesn't the Queen do a few interviews on CBC? Why do we only see handshakes when she meets with foreign dignitaries? How can we remain loyal to a person we never see? Edited November 13, 2019 by PPC2019 Quote

Dougie93 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Posted November 13, 2019 Canada is stuck with the monarchy anyways, Canada cannot be a republic. You would have to write a new constitution from scratch, and Canada would cease by default the moment you did. Confederation is a shotgun marriage, remove the monarchy, it all simply flies apart.

Like doing a speech against transgenderism, or reminding young people about our history. How is she maintaining our traditions? I sometimes feel like she's sitting an empty chair. Quote

No, Quebec will leave, followed by Alberta, followed by Ontario, then the convention would break down and Canada would become multiple new states. Edited November 13, 2019 by Dougie93 Quote
Guest PPC2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Posted November 13, 2019 She doesn't want to rock the boat... She's enjoying her cushy life without taking a stand. The old monarchs took a stand, and engaged themselves politically. Quote

In terms of being non interventionist, that is because she is trying to remain above the fray, she doesn't want to get down into the muck of politics, dragging the Crown down with. Quote

She's a Second World War veteran, bombed in the Blitz, her job in the Army was truck driver. Quote

Moonlight Graham Posted November 13, 2019 Report Posted November 13, 2019 Because they're conservative. Conservative means upholding the status quo or even trying to restore the past (reactionary). Upholding the monarchy is about upholding tradition. Even Thomas Hobbes supported the monarchy before democracy was cool.

I'm also a moderate in honoring Christianity. Quote

Safer for the British public than the hubbie driving anyway. It took an accident to persuade him to give up the keys. Liz ain’t going to live forever. Do you think we’re going to be as keen on Charlie? Quote
