The Queen was and still is mostly a symbolic leader for UK and all of the
Commonwealth, but the London Parliament had the ability to overrule any of
Canada's internal affair until 1982. The very first Act passed by the
Canadian Parliament was in 1952. I think I can understand why you have
this inferiority complex.



Trust me..if London did overrule us at any time since WW1 (that's when most
historians feel we came of age).... we would have packed our bags and left.
Unlike the rootin, tootin shoot 'em up style of y'all down there, we tend to
evolve to where we want to go.
Don't forget , we needed the Brits because of a bellicose bully next door
that kept talking about Manifest Destiny.
