Oh. One more thought on this. If the Queen of England had any real power or authority over the lives of Canadians, then I'd be worried about whether or not we were referred to as her "subjects" in some relatively obscure document that will soon be forgotten.

The British monarcy has no real authority in the lives of Canadians anymore, so I'm not worried about it. All that remains now are the vestiges of a vanishing tradition.

We are subjects of corporate America, not of the British Crown...and that remains true whether anyone says it or not. That's worth worrying about. On that rides the future of our resources, our fresh water, our economic survival, and our cultural survival, whether or not we are French or English or anything else.
