There was something absolutely lunar to hear Mark Carney explaining that Charles III will come to read the Throne’s speech on May 27, to assert Canadian sovereignty in the face of American imperial ambitions.
In other words, when the time comes to stand up to Donald Trump and his annexationists, Canada has nothing better to do than go to the Museum of British Antiquities a slightly stupid king, who waited all his life to finally play a role of figuration, and who was in the meantime to embrace all the symbols of politically correct.
Great Britain
Canada confesses its identity vacuum, its inability to define itself, by going to seek in its imperial metropolis the illusion of a substantial identity that it is not able to produce itself.
We will say: Certainly, but English Canada is due to the monarchy. It’s true. Great good.
Canada, over its history, has always needed an external reference.
It was Great Britain, then the United States, before it converted to the UN, of which he wanted the best student.
He returns here to his origins – and obviously, they have nothing to do with the two founding peoples.
Its origins are British.
And we come across the question of Quebec which, legitimately, alternates between indifference and hostility towards the English crown.
How not to see in the presence of Charles III a symbol of his neocolonial alienation in Canada?
Bloc
It should be remembered that PSPP, the chief of the PQ, knew his flight when he challenged the sideline and colonial custom wanting that Quebec deputies take oath to the king before being able to sit. He managed to bring it down to Quebec.
What will the deputies of the Bloc Québécois do? Will they behave like wise children?
Or will they surprise us with a daring blow?
