How is that different than Senatorial seats that have been passed from
father to son, as if by right? Who in their right mind who voted for
Tom Dodd would have voted for Christopher if they actually were paying
attention?

Are you really comfortable giving someone like her son that kind of power?

Why do you Canadians still put up with those silly "royals"?
As the grandson of peasants, the pretension to royalty or nobility
really offends me.
Technically, the Queen forms a pivotal part of our government structure, in
that her representative (the Governor General) can tell the Prime Minister
to go pound sand.
Unfortunately it doesn't work that way in reality, but I much prefer our
method of bringing down a government that is running amok (the GG signing
them out of power) than your way (assassinating unpopular presidents).
I have appealed to the Queen (GG) myself when I felt I was being treated
unfairly by Revenue Canada, and she made them go away.
Consider the awesomeness of someone having that much power......
