What country do you live in, and who are the monarchs? What do you think about them? Country: Canada Monarch: Elizabeth II I think it's a pointless carrying on of tradition. Does you monarch have any political power? If so, how much? If so, is it an absolute monarchy?(I don't believe there are many of those left today, if at all?) the Queen is the only member of the Royal Family with any constitutional role, holding ultimate executive authority, though her Royal Prerogative remains bound by laws enacted by her in parliament and by conventions and precedents, leaving the day-to-day exercise of executive power to her Cabinet. While several powers are the sovereign's alone, most of the royal constitutional and ceremonial duties in Canada are carried out by the Queen's representative, the Governor General; as such, the Governor General can sometimes be referred to as the de facto head of state. In each of Canada's provinces the monarch is represented by a lieutenant-governor. The territories are not sovereign, and thus do not have a viceroy. The Canadian monarch, besides reigning in Canada, separately serves as monarch for each of fifteen other Commonwealth countries known as Commonwealth realms. This developed from the former colonial relationship of these countries to Britain, but they are now independent and the monarchy of each is legally distinct. Do you think your monarch should have more power? Less power? Stay the same? Should it be abolished totally? I think it should have no power.
Does your monarch act as a symbol? Do you think they do a good job as a symbol? Yes it acts as a symbol. No as 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999% of her work is carried out by a representative acting in her place What do you think of monarchy as a whole?(anybody could answer this one.) I think that it is retarded. |
