Section 9 of the Constitution Act, 1867 (titled the British North America Act at the time of its passage by the United Kingdom Parliament) vests executive government and authority for Canada in Her Majesty the Queen. Her Majesty is the Canadian head of State and, pursuant to the Royal Style and Titles Act, is styled the Queen of Canada independently of Her Majesty's titles elsewhere.

Is Diana Spencer related to Elizabeth II?
No. They were once sisters-in-law because Diana was married to Prince Charles, brother of Sarah's then husband, Prince Andrew.
Actually, Fergie is a descendant of Georgiana Spencer Cavendish, by way of Georgiana's illegitimate daughter, Eliza Ellice. She also has a few Cavendishes in her family tree. However, since Princess Diana is a direct descendant of the Spencer family, and Fergie is descended from the daughter of a Spencer (before marriage), then in one way or another, yes... Sarah Ferguson and Diana Spencer are related. Distantly, but yes.

Will Prince Charles be the next king of Great Britain after Queen Elizabeth?
It is highly unlikely that Queen Elizabeth II will still be alive when the Prince of Wales becomes King, but if she were to abdicate she would possibly be known as the Queen Dowager (King Mother would be the form following her mother's decision not to be the Dowager Queen, although at that time there was already a Queen Dowager, Mary relict of George V) although that title technically belongs to a relict of a King.
There is no precedent for the abdication of a British Queen regnant however in those countries where this is common I believe the former monarch is referred to as Prince/Princess. Following the abdication of Edward VIII he was granted the title of Duke of Windsor and the style of HRH.

ANOTHER VEIW: right well, Prince Char(lies), see what i done there? :P ...the son of the Queen could maybe... have possibly asked her to kill her? i mean the queen can bomb England and wouldn't be arrested. PLus there were theorys that Diana was pregnant and was due to have a Muslim baby. And therefore, being the LEADER of the church of England would not allow or give any chance of a Muslim to become a future king
None of the "murder" notions stand up to the most basic logic, let alone any understanding of the British constitution or of the Royal Family's domestic problems.
