Sadly yes
Do they actually hold power or is it more like england with using them as trashy entertainment?
The British monarchs still hold power and information came out years ago showing some of the extent of it and how they still decide government actions and laws.
It’s hilarious to me that Canadians will pretend the monarchy doesn’t have power over them because they can only appoint and remove the guy who has power over them at will.
Also, that guy?
Can override anything their Prime Minister does.
And they only use that guy to not be rude.
If they wanted to do it directly, they could.
Seriously. It’s hilarious to hear people talk about how their actual head of state totally isn’t their head of state because they usually don’t do anything.
Well that sucks.
They are the head of state. They embody the State but hold very little actual political power.
They’re not that entertaining unfortunately.
We really want to get rid of them though
Some people want to red rid of them, but by far more people want to keep it, 55% for the monarchy vs 24% for a republic
Yes we do,
However they don’t hold much power over the day to day workings of the country.
The current monarch is essentially an ambassador that travels around the world for state visits and diplomatic talks. Similar to what a president and foreign minister would do.
I doubt support for the royals would be so high if not for all the national and international PR work that they do.
Do they frequently go on poverty tourism to enjoy the spectacle of cultures their people have destroyed? It’s that helpful to your country?

I’m not the head of state of a nation that built my personal wealth from the slave trade.

There reminiscing about the good old days I asume
I don’t understand protest? Should they not learn the history?
What’s going on?
The dutch are NOT well remembered in South Africa, imagine if the confederates were their own ethnicity and that’s a basic picture of how South africa views the dutch segment historically.
AFAIK now Afrikaaners are seen as ok enough as long as they don’t do shit like US southerners still butthurt about the civil war do.
People are still angry their ancestors were tortured due to the actions of these two. Are you daft???
I doubt these people have done anything 🤏 😂
Should the Jews and world still be mad at currently generation of Germans for what happened in WW2?
They are still mad at Holocaust deniers. You need some education.
What do you mean about education? Example if I know the world 🌍 is round, but flat earthers denies it, why would I need education? 😂
Wouldn’t you agree it better have them visit the museum than not?

I hope their death weighs on your conscience
Of all the places to go and things to see and do why there? Cheap flights to South Africa?
It was a state visit.
…What? Can’t you read?
