“Bechara” King Charles III of Wales
Long Live the King is still echoing after King Charles III became the king on 08Sep 2022 of what can be termed Britain comprising England, Wales, Occupied Scotland and Occupied Northern Ireland and around 14 Commonwealth Countries.
Now suddenly on 20 Oct 22, his Prime Minister has left him and he has to appoint a new one. The British Raj may come back to haunt him if finally Sunak gets appointed as the new PM….the Island then may become a Brown Man’s Burden.
Now suddenly across the Atlantic, several newly elected Quebec opposition lawmakers on Wednesday declared they would not swear an oath to Canada’s head of state, King Charles III, as required by the constitution.
The 11 Quebec solidaire party members elected on October 3 joined three members of the Parti Quebecois who last week said they, too, would refuse to take the oath.
They chose instead to swear loyalty only to the people of Quebec, but it is unclear if that will be enough for them to take their seats in the province’s National Assembly.
Swearing allegiance to the Crown has always been contentious in mostly French-speaking Quebec, which held two failed referendums in 1980 and 1995 to split from the rest of Canada.
Reacting to the controversy, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told reporters in Ottawa it was up to the Quebec legislature “to decide how they want to organize their swearing-in process.”
Constitutional experts offered mixed views.
Laval University constitutional expert Patrick Taillon opined that the Quebec legislature could simply pass a motion, a law or a regulation doing away with the need to swear allegiance to the Crown.
“The procedural solutions are numerous,” he said in a series of Twitter messages, “but they have limits.”
He also noted that “jurisprudence has established an equivalence between the monarchy, the state, its institutions and its laws. This is a margin of interpretation that [the National Assembly] could exploit.”
Next, Australia and New Zealand will not “ execute “ Charles III ( like Charles I ) but may just decide to kick out the Monarchy along with poor Charkes IiI from down under. In case this happens then Canada too may follow suit. The remaining 11 nations may then start deciding too.
The culmination will be both Scotland and Northern Ireland leaving Charles to fend for just Wales and England.
Well with help of Sunak, he can always apply to join the Indian Union. So many kings had joined the Union in 1947 !!!!
