To remove the monarchy from our system would require opening up the constitution, which is opening up a huuuuge opportunity for problems. The benefits aren't worth the risk, especially in today's political climate. We don't need a Brexit level fuckup because the average person is easy to sway with fear mongering and racism.

They're figureheads and effectively have zero power over Canada, why get rid of them?

    Cause I don’t believe in a family having inherited billions that was pillaged through slavery and colonization.

    Pillaged through slavery? I'm of who cares. I do not want to be a republic. And if we got rid of the monarchy we would replace it with a president with no power like the GG so who cares.
