News of Canada's "head of state" uproar has reached Buckingham Palace, where a spokesman for Queen Elizabeth responded cautiously to a question on Tuesday about the role Her Majesty plays in this country's political system.
If there's one thing about the politic press that I absolutely hate it's when a small mistake or gaffe during a speech gets made into a scandal. I have no idea why anything like this is even mentioned outside of page B10 of the local papers. It's not like someone died or something.
"rawmeat" said It is time to get rid of the queen and GG, then there will be no debate that Canada is run by people who are elected by the people of Canada.
Some of us like things just the way they are, thank you very much.

And those that consider that the links to the crown were and are part of our culture and heritage built this country.
Why bother the public with issues like the economy, environment, health care and Senate reform?
Offer them a circus - a lengthy well reasoned debate as to who is Canada's head of state. One way to settle the matter of course would be to have a mud wresting contest between the two ladies vying for the title.
Any news story where "The Monarchist League of Canada" is asked for a comment is not to be taken seriously.
"EyeBrock" said I think there is more to it than that lee. Check out the GG's site and all you get is the front page then this:

The problem started when they began appointing pushy women rather than servile ex-politicians. I predict the next GG will be a former cabinet minister whom we have all long since forgotten.

Yep, I bet it's being redesigned. Delete "Queen Jean" re-insert "Queen Elizabeth".
