I'm not big on the monarchy but I can get behind Chuck and what he's been up to lately in regards to Canadian sovereignty.

Thanks for not being a complete royal douche and breaking ranks to show support.

He's not being a dick and meddling either. That's apparently a high bar on this planet so I won't complain too much about how silly the public funded monarch LARP is.

I'm just not sure how many Canadians care? Like does this bring any comfort to anyone anymore? I've never met a fan of royalty in Canada outside, but maybe it's a thing out east idk.

Generally idgaf about the monarchy but I've been waiting for them to speak up on it. Our so-called king should give a shit when other countries threaten parts of his Commonwealth.

That's because Trump has cancelled his trip to talk about Commonwealth membership, so there's nothing to be careful about anymore.
