Just a little correction here. Actually, there are still connexions: Elizabeth
is still Queen of Canada (although one hardly ever hears about it), reason for
which various bodies of the Canadian federal gov't still have the adjective
"Royal" (e.g. Royal Commission). In some provinces she is also considered
sovereign of the province (e.g. Ontario). Of course, this is all more or less
a matter of form. Btw, I'm not Canadian, so I guess I may be considered a
neutral party :-)
