Canada is part of the British Commonwealth.

Trump is not just taking on Canada, he is taking on Great Britain.

In full regalia, feathers and all. Classy.

but then I hate all royals. Guess they hate Donvict even more. 😀

I love that.

Thanks, malaise.

😀

Sorry, but I still blame her for what happened to Diana. I still think about Diana and she would've loved being a grandmother.

As do I. It just frosts me that Camilla gets to be queen. It's just not right.

Diana had to be a virgin, but it was OK for Charles to be an adulterer.

she was really used and abused when she was just a kid. I will always remembered that interview she had when she said "there were three of us in our marriage and it was getting a bit crowded." She was just a lost young woman who had great love for her children and needed to protect them. The Queen was such a hard ass, I still get a little pissed when I think of her.

Don't mess with the true King,

She made a special visit for the same reason as King Charles.

And I thought I was so clever for remembering the visit.

It is a reminder to the world that no matter what the orange baboon says, Canada is a sovereign country with ties to other countries, besides the US.

Carney’s invitation to Charles comes against the backdrop of Donald Trump’s repeated threats that the US should annex Canada and make it the 51st state.

But when the king gives the throne speech laying out the new government’s goals and its plans to achieve them, he will be tightly constrained by what he can say.

“Because we have a constitutional monarchy, the king can only operate inside a box that is defined by parliament – because we don’t want a king, or any unelected person, affecting policy and laws,” said Justin Vovk, a royal historian and author. “Any influence the monarch exerts is done through subtlety.”

He has it all confused with despot. He should go try it someplace else--like in Hell.

He's a class act.

Content now - ask their former colonial subjects or their working poor.

... which is, granted, a very low bar indeed. But when one reads how other counties treated their colonies, well, if you had to be one, best to be British.

Will be the Governments - he is merely a figurehead Head of State

I like it when he puts common riff-raff like dim donald in their place.

Starts about 1.16

Even if he's a king, Charles distinguishes Canada as a democracy of good people, where freedom of speech and diversity are celebrated and shared. He makes clear the UK and the world are united against fascists like some lardass who lives in the Shite House.

I always wanted to be a Mountie ranging 'round the Yukon...
