    I understand that. And I guess I’m not convincing anyone in this thread, but, things like this, and how the article gushes about Elizabeth’s ‘brooch warfare’, I fail to see how these are things that Canadians ought to feel good about or empowered by. They don’t benefit us in any way.

      You say that but they do. The Crown doesn’t have the authority to tell people to go get fucked directly anymore, there are the prime ministers and the rest of our elected officials.

      So instead of actually doing nothing, they give a threatened man a weapon and show in other ways that they stand behind their people.
