I'm probably not the one to be speaking to this, because I was raised being told that the connection to the crown was wholly symbolic and a relic of a time past.
Then, there's a vote of no-confidence some years back and the governor-general (the queen's representative) suspended parliament for a couple of weeks. Tried the vote a second time, it gets shut down again... eventually parliament learned that the vote was not acceptable to the crown.
But that means she has real power over Canada, not just a symbol or a relic. Then learning how many of Canadians rights are subject to a "notwithstanding clause" that creates all sorts of circumstances where rights do not apply.
Frustrating to feel like a person needs a Ph.D. to feel that they can grasp the legal system they live under.

I was taught that monarchies of Europe were figureheads, but Q opened my eyes. I found out Elisabeth II was head of the Committee of 300, and all members of 🇬🇧 royal family are included. She has more power than I knew. https://themillenniumreport.com/2016/12/illuminati-leak-current-membership-of-committee-of-300/
