I swear alliegence to the Queen, that requires me to support the monarchy. Though, I would like to have the position of the governor-general abolished.
I suppose it depends if they, I mean Canadians want to be purely Canadian or be a part part of something larger by maintaing links from the past and there heritage.

Should raw analytical data ever be passed to policy makers?
Well personally Id like to have less ties to the British Monarchy in this country.
id prefer to have Canadian Prime Minesters on our Twenty dollar bill and coins than the queen. Im sure that when she kicks the bucket that someone else will be put onto them. Other than that, id also like to see the GG position removed.
I think that Canada is slowly moving away from the Monarchy, not crazy fast like the australians. And not by force, like the Americans. But i think that when we decided to have our own flag, rather than the red ensign, was the beginning of the end for it all.
Other than that, I dont hold any ill will towards the Monarchy. It is apart of this countries past, it is our heritage. And that should be something always held onto, and rememberd.

Well, my sister-in-law was buying the drinks last night. Damned woman doesn't know good scotch and keep getting me Cutty Sark all night. There's not enough icy water to drown out the taste.
However, I have never forgiven Gretzky for wimpifying hockey for a decade.

I don't have to attend every argument I'm invited to.
