Today is Statute of Westminster Day, which is the birthday of the Canadian Crown as a separate entity from the UK Crown.
It’s an incredibly important day for Canadian sovereignty, but mostly gets passed over, or under-taught in schools. #MapleCrown

The King wearing Canadian military honours while touring a UK Royal Navy aircraft carrier is the kind of subtle nods of support we are likely to see more of, rather than an overt statement. #MapleCrown

It is nice to see Prince Edward make an appearance, and say a few words, and to bring greetings from Their Majesties with a promise of a longer royal tour to come.

The framing of this story shows that our media doesn't understand how constitutional monarchy works. And while they say that Charles III is Canada's head of state, the piece doesn't actually spell out King of Canada, while the photo caption says "Britain." FFS #MapleCrown
Trump says Canada should become part of U.S. Our head of state isn't weighing in.
OTTAWA - Canada's political leadership has found rare unanimity in recent weeks: nobody wants the country to become the "51st state," as U.S. President Donald Trump has repeatedly pitched.
