Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Kinda like 2 in 3 Canadians vote socialist.
The Canadian electorate is kinda like the MSM:
What they like is bad, and what they don’t like is good.
IMHO, the reality is that Confederation itself needs to end, yet another good idea that Canadians don’t like, but Canadians don’t like freedom either, and both cons and libs alike run to Big Brother to protect them from whatever perceived danger they may face, like guns, seat-belts, cigarettes, booze, even climbing a ladder without a freakin’ permit, and when the stupid laws don’t work, the cons especially start spouting the “tough on crime” line.
100%
Yes
Confederation was never about freedom or government of the people.
It was the last gasp effort to maintain the existing power structures of upper and lower Canada in the hope that when the “Americans” devolved into anarchy they would be begging for their betters to come rescue them.
Last time I drove through Niagara on the Lake there are still some that retain the initials “UEL” on their mail boxes.
Trump’s message is clear
If Canada wants to be treated as an independent country then stop acting like a colony and behave like a real country.
The pretentious behaviour isn’t going to make it so.
I think it has more to with having a government that is not a puppet of the PRC
I think it has more to do with Your King inviting the Orangemanbad to another State Visit …
And they’d really hoped Keir Starmer would have acted TOUGH with Trump … like Hugh Grant in that schmaltzy Christmas movie, Love Actually.

Believing in the divine right of Kings is like believing in wizards and elves… or getting teary-eyed at the death of 95 year-old Gene Hackman.

In Canada the divine right of kings has been replaced with the middle finger.
Gene Hackman provided some entertainment value to your life. But I still shed no tears.
I lost all respect for the monarchy when queen Betty signed Pierre’s used toilet paper some call the Canadian constitution. Nothing since has changed my mind.
The Queen probably asked her aide
“Tell me, if I sign this thing will the pretentious little frog go away never bother me with his presence ever again?”
I harken back to that fateful day in 1982. I recall how I felt during the signing, and my gut at the time felt that this wasn’t the best deal for Canada, but like a post-teen liberal at the time, I drank the media kool-aid, and accepted that at least the turmoil that surrounded the constitutional crisis was ending.
Well, I should have paid more attention to my gut. The constitution is a used roll of TP, but for an entirely different set of reasons than what I had that day back in 1982.
I thought the whole deal with the notwithstanding clause was a loophole you could drive a truck through, and the Quebec government proved me right on that point.
But I never thought in my wildest dreams that the constitution would allow for the federal government to get away with all the lies, corruption, and the trampling of human rights as it did when it implemented the EA, and started freezing bank accounts of people who stood up to that government’s policies.
When Pearson brought out the lib-dip rag for Quebec at the time I thought it was the start of Canada liberation from colonial rule. Boy was I wrong.
Just like a Canadian to politely request with a strongly worded letter. Take absolute charge of your own destiny. Kick that jug headed man-child retard out of Canada along with his corrupt Westminster style government. Declare independence. Defend it vigorously. Impress the world and lead the way. And for God sakes, for once in your collective lives, grow a set!
Won’t somebody think of the Polo mints?
I always thought being part of the Empire was a lot superior to being Trump’s house N-word. They were great friends and allies.
TDS ‘tard.
So pathetic, Trump is ending the Israeli hostage crisis, the Ukraine war, the Mexican drug cartels, just for openers.
King Charles is on about net zero. Take a look at the “empire.” Done and dusted, even the home country is collapsing. You backed the wrong horse.
King Charles is a greenie cultist so you would think the brainwashed swamp creatures in Canada would fully embrace him.
scarppy
Go over to the Ewekraine, and fight alongside yer A$$off nazis.
Pay no attention to the man child’s twisted rhetoric, but listen to the others when they express what they think of your comment.
Once again, you show your true colors.
I see Jessica engage in insane rants all the time, and not a peep from you, fc.
The “Empire” was surpassed economically by 1900. And was dead in 1945. UK and France couldn’t retake Suez. Recently together they couldn’t take Libya without begging the US to take out ancient air defenses. (Oh, and give us some bombs.)
Couldn’t do Yugoslavia. Forget about Ukraine posing.
If it means we get to eliminate the office/ expense of the Governor General, sign me up.
I would prefer it be replaced with an independent, effective and elected head of state. Same for the LG for each province.

Press conference, Starfish and Trump.
Start at the 20 min mark. At about 23 min. You’ll hear Trump say “That’s enough.”
I would just like note “That’s enough.” for the record here.
If you look at what tariff threats are causing in Mexico (dramatic reduction in illegal entries, extradition of cartel kingpins after years of requests) understand that the tariff threats are to get Canada to stop being a transshipment point for Chinese fentanyl. Don’t make us unleash Orange Bad Man on you!
They want *a king* to ‘support their independence’. Do they not know what a king is?
I freaking hate having Charles on my currency. Having a coin with his inbred mug on it is like having a little piece of Epstein island in your pocket.
Ouch.
L- If Canada had a king, then Regina would have been changed to Rex.
It might be best to keep our terrible constitution for a while at a time when Trump is on the rampage, trashing his neighbours. We need property rights in any new constitution, fewer rights and more obligations. Prime Ministers should not be able to add more groups to the discrimination file.
It will take time to get it right.
Prime Ministers shouldn’t be effete little faggots either, but it is what it is.
We need a lot of things but we’re not getting them. And every year the list gets longer.
There is this option and all that is required is demonstrable proof the protected state has lost control of its sovereign borders.
Or that the current government has violated its own constitution.

I could care less about the monarchy one way or the other. Though I would vote to eliminate the Federal Government in a heartbeat.
The notion that Chucky will stand up for Canadian sovereignty is laughable. He won’t even stand up for his own people in the face of invasion and foreign bEurocrat tryanny. Nor does he seem the least bit interested in being the Defender of the Faith.
It is true that a lot of Canadians tend to have socialist views and are anti-monarchy. I am a conservative, but, now that Queen Elizabeth has died, I do think we need to become our own country (or WEXIT). Thus, am more in favour of independence.
This discussion needs time, and it is not now. Our culture is based on British, Scottish and Irish roots. Diversity is not working too well any more, as some new immigrants are telling us to change vs. adapting. King Charles is not someone whom I particularly admire or respect, so it may be time to soon to re-open Trudeau 1’s flawed constitution.
Not now – we need a new government in Ottawa first and wait for Trump to calm down and act as a statesman.
IF “Canada” is indeed America’s “best friend,” it would help to act like it. But, we’re not America’s “best friend” in practice and Trump is calling us on it.
“Canada,” whatever that is now, is ending.
Canada is falling into an interesting self-set trap. Do you walk away from America, our largest trading partner? Embrace the Commonwealth countries or shun the Monarchy (British)? Move closer to France (hahaha)? How about China or India?
We’re checking ourselves out of the game. I wouldn’t be surprised if Trudeau announced a new trade deal with Greenland. That’s how far off the puck we are.
That’s what I was thinking.
Heh?
Government is parogued for a vanity project,so we need “The King” to cover for the Naked Emperor?
If Orange Man and his outrageous,brutal honesty,is such a “threat”?
Why is the current,elected Government of Canada,off on retreat while they hold the Liberal Beauty Contest?
Canada Trade?
Canada fiscal business?
Neighbouring State saying “You should join with us”
Could be important to all citizens?
Who holds “Dear Leader” Status inside the Liberal Party of Canada?
Important only to Liberals.
For us tax paying citizens,one lying A hole same as last Lying A hole.
I am British and live in the UK,i for one do not blame you i wish to hell we could get rid of the sausage fingered WEF controlled retard.
L – Can a King by not honouring the foundations of British Common-Law, the Magna Carta and the Natural Rights
of British citizens. If so, could he be charged with Treason. Or replaced, what exactly is the legal status and obligations of a British Monarch? Ignorance thereof is not accidental, it is necessary for indoctrination into
a miasma of absolute tyranny that is staring us in the face, today. Which is another fed. gov’t. attempt at
a Psy-Op, another Mass Formation Psychosis.

“Breach of contract can, for a sworn monarch, have terrible consequences. The charge of flouting their coronation oaths was levelled against Edward II (deposed and murdered), Richard II (ditto), Charles I (deposed and executed) and James II (deposed and exiled). Those kings could not be trusted because they had broken their sacred word.”
“The recognition is the moment at the beginning of the ceremony when the monarch is presented to the people for approval. The acclamation is the moment in which the people accept the new monarch.
Together, these three acts establish a contractual relationship between sovereign and peoples. By public commitment to the promises and values enshrined in the oath, the monarch is forming a bond to the largely uncodified constitution (the UK’s constitution has never been assembled into a single written document).
There has been talk of a shorter service for Charles III’s coronation. But to omit these vital stages would amount to constitutional vandalism.
Before primogeniture (the law of firstborn inheritance), the British monarchy was elective. In Anglo-Saxon times, the witan (the leading nobles or council of the country) chose the new sovereign. And until at least the middle ages, a secular enthronement, preceded the coronation service.
Today’s acclamation comes from that tradition of electing a sovereign. This is when the officiant (usually the Archbishop of Canterbury), standing with the candidate in Westminster Abbey, asks whether or not the congregation recognises the candidate’s entitlement to be crowned.

You might want to ask Charles I how that works.

Here’s my proposal, we eliminate the monarchy. Then instead of the political parties picking who gets to be Governor General, that position is selected by lottery every 2 years of all net taxpayers.
It probably wouldn’t be any worse than the people we get now.
If it’s not an independent, effective and elected head of state office it has no beneficial function. It’s no different than the current grifter enabling waste.
Unless and until I see King Charles forcing Trudeau and his gang back to parliament, or better yet stating he has lost confidence in his government and ordering an election, I fail to see how the role of King Charles is meaningful in any way.
Nostalgia as the basis for a system of government is ALWAYS a bad idea.
