    1. At least a trans person has to work for a living instead of getting tens of millions every year from UK taxpayers. And further, not have a family history of directing the conquest/colonization of foreign countries

    2. @John Brower Colonization benefitted many nations, including Canada and the United States. two of the best in the world today.

  1. I would say ” just help me have money, and I don’t care whose picture is on it”. But after giving it some thought, I say ” No Charles picture on the money, and I don’t care if I have any”

  2. And in my own personal opinion,And our English/Royal English,our Welsh/Royal Welsh and our Scottish/Royal Scottish called or also known as our British/Royal British Monarch named His Majesty King Charles III deserves to be seen in our Canadian currency who is weeks away from his British/Royal British coronation.And considering and knowing that his ” late Queen Mother who ruled our British/Royal British Empire for 70 years before her death” named Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is already currently seen in our $ 20.00 Canadian dollar bill or bank note.

  3. Methinks maybe Justin will appoint a special board to research who Canadians want to feature on currency and after lots of serious polling they will magically come back with the findings that the winner was Pierre Trudeau. He can say since he had nothing to do with the board’s research, but he will still honor the wishes of those polled

  4. Canadians want their King on their coinage. There seems to be some sort of sinister element to this type of anti-monarchy reporting.

    1. Not this one. I do not like nor want anything to do with the Monarchy. It’s a joke and a waste of money.

  5. Enough of the royal family grifting off of Canada around with the Governor General that think they are royal 👑 grifters too 👑💵💵💵🇨🇦👎🚽

  6. I think it’s time to cut ties with that institution which contributes absolutly zero to Canada, in fact every canadians pay the crown approximately $1.55 to the monarchy to pay the GG expenses which represent them when the monarchy is not available. That $1.55 is roughly $62,000,000.00 annualy, take whatever the GG needs on an annual basis, and yes you guessed it, the rest goes to feed that institution. Make no mistakes, Trudeau IS associated with the monarchy. And how long have we had the GG position??? Well that’s a fair bit of savings wouldn’t you say?.
