Why is Queen Elizabeth II portrait picture on Canada money?

Updated: 10/25/2022

Queen Elizabeth II is on Canada's money because she is the Queen of Canada. Several countries belonging to the Commonwealth (such as Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica) share a common monarch. However, the Queen is not considered the Queen of England reigning over those countries, but rather she carries separate titles independent of one another (Queen of Canada, Queen of Australia, etc.). The Queen is represented by a Governor General in Canada.
