When is the next election for queen of Canada?
Canada does not have a Queen other than for ceremonial purposes. We tend to use the current British Queen, QEII, when an image or ceremony needs to be carried out since she was Queen of Canada before we repatriated our Constitution leaving her and Britain with no real role to play in our political systems. The question of her election or replacement will be brought up again once the current Queen of England dies. It will be controversial as many Canadians strongly believe and point to the many Royal references in our documents that Canada must answer to a Queen and her representatives. Yet most Canadians see Canada as a democracy and not one that answers to any Queen or King and certainly not one from a foreign country. So the next election is going to depend on which government is in power. The Canadian tradition so far has been to defer, ignore or put off such fundamental questions but that may not be possible much longer. Hopefully Canada will not be electing any Queen and Canadians will accept full responsibility for their own political future, but history suggests otherwise.
Is Elizabeth II the Queen of Canada?
Her Majesty is the Queen of Canada as per s. 9 of the Constitution Act, 1867, which vests executive government and authority in the Queen. The Queen is represented, in Canada, by the Governor General (currently His Excellency the Right Honourable David Johnston), who performs nearly all of the Queen's functions.----------------------------------The Governor General in Canada does not answer to QEII, or any Queen other than the ceremonial one on Canadian paper. The Governor General, David Lloyd Johnston, fulfills a ceremonial role for the Canadian People and our elected representatives via the Prime Minister of Canada. Though many do long for the days when we answered to Britain, our political references to the Queen and Royal stations are ceremonial only. Canada is independent from Britain politically.
Was Queen Elizabeth Queen of all Canada?
yes --------------------------- This Queen was never the ruler of Canada. Even the slightest such comment from her would have created a Constitutional Crisis particularly after the Balfour Declaration of 1926. If the Queen or Britain wanted anything from Canada they would do so through their Ambassador called a High Commissioner. The Governor General in Canada does not answer to QEII, or any Queen other than the ceremonial one on Canadian paper. The Governor General, David Lloyd Johnston, fulfills a ceremonial role for the Canadian People and our elected representatives via the Prime Minister of Canada. Though many do long for the days when we answered to Britain, our political references to the Queen and Royal stations are ceremonial only. Canada is independent from Britain politically.
Does Canada have a prime minister?
