Was Queen Elizabeth Queen of all Canada?

Answer 1

yes

---------------------------

This Queen was never the ruler of Canada. Even the slightest such comment from her would have created a Constitutional Crisis particularly after the Balfour Declaration of 1926. If the Queen or Britain wanted anything from Canada they would do so through their Ambassador called a High Commissioner.

The Governor General in Canada does not answer to QEII, or any Queen other than the ceremonial one on Canadian paper. The Governor General, David Lloyd Johnston, fulfills a ceremonial role for the Canadian People and our elected representatives via the Prime Minister of Canada.

Though many do long for the days when we answered to Britain, our political references to the Queen and Royal stations are ceremonial only. Canada is independent from Britain politically.

Answer 2

Her Majesty is the Queen of Canada as per s. 9 of the Constitution Act, 1867, which vests executive government and authority in the Queen. The Queen is represented, in Canada, by the Governor General (currently His Excellency the Right Honourable David Johnston), who performs nearly all of the Queen's functions.

Answer 3

If your referring to Elizabeth I of England, no.

If your referring to Queen Elizabeth II, she is the present reigning Monarch of Canada, and of course she is Queen of all Canada.

Answer 4

Canada was a British colony until 1867 and a British Dominion for many decades afterward. In simple terms, although they became independent, they decided to keep the Queen for tradition.

Answer 5

Both Queen Elizabeth the first and Queen Elizabeth were born and raised in England and lived there all their lives seing as they ruled the country.

Answer 6

No. Canada is an independent country. However, Canada has chosen to remain part of the Commonwealth of Nations and have Queen Elizabeth II as its Head of State.
