      There's a kind of very earnest ceremonial formality which is a big part of the Canadian identity at an elite level. Obviously taken from British monarchy but feels very strange when transplanted to North America.

          Never bought the gown. I like this stuff in theory but can never get into in practise.

          Do you know if they do that in Australia? (Or New Zealand?) To my knowledge, they don't. I wonder why?

          Be careful or the unelected Hesse despot overlords will have you drawn and quartered. It sounds pretty but it ain’t.

          No. Canada is very settled into monarchy.

          We are kinda squares, but our ceremonial figures are also sometimes pretty badass: Sgt at Arms Kevin Vickers.

          Those foreigners sure are funny; they do things differently than in the USA. I wonder how that could ever be?
