I will disclose I am a Monarchist, but assuming your question is genuine and not rhetorical, I’ll try to answer it.
Quebec has the right idea.
Quebec as a Province, has the right to make that decision. The Provinces formed Canada in Confederation. Territories don’t have that independence.
Why the hell do elected politicians in a democracy have to swear loyalty to a foreign hereditary monarch?
Charles is the King of Canada too, so he’s a domestic monarchy.
This “head of state” excuse sounds like a relic of the past to appease British sentiments.
Our whole government is set up with our head of state at it’s core. While I acknowledge the pain and trauma many associate the Charles and his family, the Crown is legally how the Government of Canada is represented in many ways. Even if everyone involved supported moving to change that entity, the legal hoops would be extensive.
