I really like toronto and would have liked to move there but man this type of thing would have been the hardest part (well obviously there are other hard parts or I would have done it)
What part would have been the hardest? I’m a Canadian and the only time in my life I had to swear an oath was when I went to work in Government. I think I was offered an option to swear on the Bible or to the Queen. Again, the only time in my life it came up and it was kind weird.
Americans swear alliegiance to their flag every day in school. That’s weird.
yeah the pledge was wierd but it was actually not that often and even by upper grade school your going to get a lot of clowning around it so im not sure if they gave up all over or just after a certain grade. Honestly its just the technical monarchy part. I might misunderstand but I thought some representative of the monarch could dissolve parliment and make and break treaties and such.
I’ve become a Canadian citizen fairly recently, and the first time I have ever encountered anything related to the King since the past eight years I’ve been living here was during the Citizenship Oath. Which was a fun little ceremony.
You don’t even have to become a citizen to live in Toronto. Instead I’d just simply not live in Toronto because it’s a shit place, not because of some irrelevancy.
The constitutional monarchy is just a leftover remnant and not relevant to daily lift. The Governor General (the King/Queen’s representative) does have the power to dissolve and create governments but it’s really just symbolic. If they were ever to use that power against the wishes of the electorate, that power would probably get taken away really quickly.
King Charles hasn’t even visted Canada since he became king. That’s how much the monarchy means to us too in Canada. Symbolic, but stay away.

So don’t let Charles hold you back!
