    Uhhh mate our nation is literally dictated by another country and we don’t have genuine autonomy?

    Uh… No? The fuck are you even talking about? When is the last time the British monarch made a decision on behalf of Canada?

      Okay, so the oath of allegience of Canada is quite… weird:

      I swear (or affirm) That I will be faithful And bear true allegiance To His Majesty King Charles the Third King of Canada His Heirs and Successors And that I will faithfully observe The laws of Canada Including the Constitution Which recognizes and affirms The Aboriginal and treaty rights of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples And fulfil my duties as a Canadian citizen.”

      Pledging loyalty to a constitution is one thing, pledging loyalty to some dipshit king is so fucking weird.

          Yeah, so within the lifetime of most of my country.

          So…. yeah, it can happen and is a risk of having an unelected foreign head of state.
