The majority of Canadians support the system we have even if they support different political ideologies.

I would suggest that the majority of Canadians are confused as to the nature of their state,

since the majority of Canadians present as nationalists,

when in fact nationalism is the antithesis of monarchy,

the concept that the House of Windsor in the fatherland,

and the government in Ottawa is actually a sub national jurisdiction within,

Canadians have spent decades voting against that,

right up until it backfired in their faces the other day, 

when Washington read the fine print and decided that a Canadian republic does not in fact exist,

within the context of the British Crown,

nationalism is the IRA, nationalism is the FLQ, nationalism is the Khalistani Sikhs,

and so nationalism is actually poison to Canada,

and it has weakened the state to the threshold of chumming the waters,

and as result, the sharks are circling round Canada now,

there are no friends in geopolitics, only interests,

and suddenly naive Canada is getting its comeuppance therein,

Donald Trump did not make Canada into the 51st State, Canada made itself into that, like babes in the woods,

and it's not as if Canadians were not warned.

go right back the the election of 1988.

when the opposition clearly and vociferously said ;

making ourselves so beholden to the Americans ; this will come back to haunt us someday

Isn't it great to have a Head of State that can only give speeches, cut ribbons, shake hands and wave at you from a motorcade?
Rather than as our neighbours to the south have discovered electing a possible tyrant every four years.

Never was a great admirer of the Monarchy but I've become very Churchillian in my old age. Parliamentary democracy may not be the best form of govt but it will so until somebody comes up with a better one.

as if Ian Paisley is some sort of Canadian paragon ?

he was literally persona non grata in Canada,

he was run out of Toronto when he came in 1982,

but there was no violence,

don't you know that there is a truce in Canada ?

the Six Counties of the North is the Province of Ulster,

the Loyalists of Ulster are the Orangemen,

and in fact, they are the ones whom founded Canada,

Sir John A. MacDonald, first Prime Minister of Canada, was an Orangemen,

so was John George Diefenbaker, 

the Orange Order literally ran Canada, right into the 1960's,

so not sure what you are getting so upset about,

since clearly Canada is far from being a nefarious plot of the Romanists,

but is rather one of the most Protestant states that ever was,

for example, we in Ontario have only just got to buy beer in the corner store, this very year,

and that is all about the Orange Order running this place for near two hundred years,

ah, but after being press ganged by the Royal Navy at Liverpool,

instead he decided to jump ship upon arrival at Halifax Harbour, Nova Scotia,

going on to be a merchant captain of a schooner in the Triangle Trade,

perhaps that is where I get my rebellious streak from

HM has far more power than he ever employs, as all the Royal Prerogatives & Reserve Powers remain on paper,

it's just that the House of Windsor has a policy of never invoking those powers,

in fear of a revolt in the face of it,

dating back to George V founding the House of Windsor and reforming the monarchy therein,

in the wake of the Bolsheviks murdering his cousin Nicky and family,

tho I would suggest that this deep seated fear is overwrought at this juncture,

just like Donald Trump, it would simply take a King who was willing to push the envelope, test the limits.

and the public would actually go along with it far more than the Windsor's surmise,

because the masses are no longer democratic, the masses are now tribal,

so all a monarch would have to do is side with the dominant tribe, and they would go to war for him,

if it can happen in America, it could easily happen in the British realm,

all it would take is a royal like Prince Andrew ascending to the throne, for example

because one Royal Prerogative that the Windsor's decline to invoke,

is that the monarch cannot be charged with a criminal  offence,

constitutionally, you cannot arrest the monarch, you cannot compel the monarch to testify

and you cannot charge the monarch with a crime,

pretty sure a King Andrew would have invoked that by now,

and in actual fact, it's sort of being invoked by default,

since how is it that Prince Andrew has not been charged for being a child rapist ?

it's de facto even if not de jure at this point, because if he wasn't Prince Andrew, he'd be in jail by now,

that Royal Prerogative is creeping, without the royal family having to invoke anything formally

Oh bugger off with your insane vision of Kings 500 years ago. You live under one who acts like one and thinks he's the King of Kings.

You're living in a country founded under the delusion the King passed the tax laws they rebelled against.

all Donald Trump is doing is acting like a Canadian Prime Minister in America

[herbie]

Oh you pinhead a PM cannot simply declare laws and implement then by himself.
There is a Senate and a House of Parliament, the King doesn't do sweet f*ck all.

Trump is certainly not acting in any way like a Canadian PM he's acting like a fascist strongman and you must be incredibly stupid not to see that.

Just for clarification, studying the bible is not a prerequisite for gods approval...all he asks is for you to believe in him and worship no one other than him...you can do that without going to church, or studying the bible....lets not confuse church  and all of it's human interactions as gods words or direction he wants us to follows....sorry our church has done many things i'm sure god does not approve of...

none the less, if Donald Trump had the power of the Canadian Prime Minister,

there would be no checks & balances to restrain him at all,

the Canadian Prime Minister is effectively an elected dictator,

all the MP's are cronies & sycophants, all the civil servants too, most significantly the RCMP,

Donald Trump has been arrested and convicted of crimes,

that would never happen in Canada,

Justin Trudeau broke the law with impunity while the Mounties looked the other way,

yet if you ever cross the Canadian Prime Minister,

suddenly the Mounties will come after you with false charges,

talk about fascism

When the Devil was tempting Jesus, this is what was said:

"3  And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4  But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. "  Matthew 4:3, 4 KJV

Jesus is saying here that the Bible is the Christians food for following him and growing spiritually.  The King James Bible, in English, are the very words that "proceedeth out of the mouth of God."

There are many reasons why it is so important.  Here are a few.

"

The Bible is important for several reasons:

1.  It serves as a foundation of faith, providing timeless lessons, wisdom, and hope that guide moral choices and spiritual strength. 

2.  The Bible tells the story of God's nature and humanity, revealing themes of creation, judgment, and deliverance, which help us understand our place in the world. 

3.   It connects believers with their spiritual heritage, offering insights into the life and teachings of Jesus, which are central to Christian faith. 

4.  The Bible provides guidance and direction for living a meaningful life, helping individuals navigate moral dilemmas and personal challenges. 

5.  It is a source of comfort and inspiration, offering hope and encouragement through its teachings.

6.  Overall, the Bible's significance extends beyond religious contexts, influencing culture, ethics, and personal development.
