The UK has long since ceased to be a world power so it’s doubtful how much sway, if any, it still holds over Canada and its other former colonies; and if in fact it does, how much does that sway actually matters. At this point Canada’s allegiance to the racist throne has probably more to do with habit and tradition than anything else.
However, it just begs question when a country drapes itself in unalienable sovereignty when it has yet to fully assert its own.
By way of disclosure, I’m not a Canada expert by any means. I know quite a bit more about Québec than I do about mainland Canada.
