Foreign figurehead presiding over Canada’s Government

Posted on May 8, 2025 by Republican Canadian

Opinion | I voted for Mark Carney hoping he’d lead a strong, sovereign Canada. This first big gesture is not what I had in mind. By Janice Kennedy. Nothing says “strong sovereign nation” like a foreign figurehead presiding over a government’s launch party. But there it is. Prime Minister Mark Carney has invited King Charles…

Reminder: Canadian legislators urged to recognize that the majority want a Canadian head of state

Posted on May 5, 2023 by Republican Canadian

Dear MP or Senator, The death of Queen Elizabeth has thrust our country into a period of transition, prompting many to question our continued ties to the British monarchy.

Republic Now / République du Canada
We have long known that Canada's plagiarism of the British monarchy is a cancer upon our nation, making our citizens subjects to a foreign throne; insulting oath-takers who are forced to to swear allegiance to a British household; denying Canadians the credit they deserve for historic achievements; preventing the development of wholly Canadian symbols; relegating those we have to positions inferior to British ones, including the Canadian flag, itself; precluding anyone other than a member of the Church of England from becoming "the personification of the Canadian state". We seek to rid our nation of this cancer, just as we hope Kate and Charles rid themselves of the diseases they are now battling. Only then can we step into the future, liberated from the insidious residue of imperialism. ... See MoreSee Less

"The king and queen of Canada" won't be seen in this country for a while. There were reports that plans for a visit in May were underway, but all bets are off, following Charles's cancer diagnosis. They won't touch our soil at all, this year. We're a tad disappointed, because a royal visit would have widened debate on whether our proud, independent and democratic nation should keep leaning on another country's unelected head of state for its highest office.

A Canadian Head of State

When Canada takes control of its office of head of state, by filling the position independently and internally, we will achieve another milestone in our evolution as a nation.

Values

Only when our head of state is selected democratically will our highest office embody the values of our Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Independence

After 150 years of nationhood it is truly unfortunate that Canada still lacks the self-assurance to fill and administer its own office of head of state. Canada is the only member of the G7 which does not independently administer its highest office.
