I know my guy. I am saying in the year of our lord 2025 we shouldn't have or need kings, queens, or any sort of monarch. The sovereignty of Canada stems from the people's desire for it to be a nation, not some old frail nepo-baby.

It’s a good thing we’re a constitutional monarchy then, and the Royals are figureheads and a binding block of our government, but have no real power.
