Would you like to change Canada’s status as constitutional monarchy?
no, believe canada should remain crowned republic, have been.
main issue behind keeping crown not 1 of politics, of culture. american head of state can remain in power maximum of 8 years; barely enough time effect real change in country. power, , government's goals, shift every few years. if government changes mind important , wants accomplish every 4 years, how supposed dignify of values, or reach of goals? well, head of state has limited pool of support draw from, in system such states'. republican population opposes obama, , democrat population opposed bush. nation divided against cannot stand. canadians may dislike harper , goals , values, have majesty queen to, beyond these differences.
monarch's role, in our society, apolitical figure, above government , yet ruling it, unite masses , work toward people. figure such important in multicultural nation canada, not welcomes newcomers nations , of creeds join us, built on division of culture, between french , english. thing unites canadians, whether albertan, or acadian, or ontarian, or quebecois, whether young or old, whether liberal or conservative, our loving monarch, queen elizabeth ii.
furthermore, monarchy has become long established part of canadian culture, point not our government , "a face on our money," part of our cultural identity. queen on our money was, @ 1 point, reason our provinces , territories did not become northernmost part of america. while threat of annexation has passed by, monarchy remains 1 of largest pillars separating our southern neighbours. former prime minister john diefenbaker once said, "[having] royal family means we're not american. , isn't enough?"
despite these countless benefits monarchism provides us, arguments still stand republic of canada. issue idealist republicans not understand, though, small, possible benefits system offers not worth cost of switching over. royal family costs little, actually, cost quite lot republicans propose: complete overhaul of our entire political system. worth pouring countless millions of taxpayer's money reworking of our government, getting rid of established benefits, possibility of some, minor improvements? republicans insist queen little more appear on our currency, if case, worth paying millions of tax-collected dollars removing face our money?
crown played prominent role in establishing canada nation of own, separate britain , separate united states. gives identify has no platform other act in our best interest. queen has no party affiliations, party affiliations of individuals cannot rise between people , head of state. gives rally behind , unite for, , provides human face our great land. american political system built on idealist values, , extremely ineffective in long run, , few perceived benefits offers us, not worth extremely large amount of money take overhaul our government. thus, in opinion, in canada's best interest, , forever, remain queen @ our head. god save queen of canada!
