i've never liked the monarchy and it has always annoyed me that the queen is on our money. couldn't we find some real Canadian historical figure to put on our $20 bills, someone who actually matters?

It's more than the person though. It's more than the monarchy, IMO. It's the way we claimed our independance without war and the way we kept our heritage in doing so. That's what she represents to us. But again, that's just my opinion.
