I don't like anyone who is apparently ordained by god to rule over me because they are a superior human being and i am human scum that needs to be led (or exploited).
The Queen may seem tolarant but you are nothing but a peon and a simpleton to them, why should i treat them with respect? What have they ever done for the common man other then exploit their power and live of their backs?
The Queen has never worked a day in her life (along with generation upon generation of her family) yet lives in million dollar palaces and receives million dollar allowances. The royal families only task is to not screw up and to show up for photo-ops and they often cannot even do that right....
I have a lot of tolarance for people that work hard and deserve it, but the royal family is nothing more then a glorified welfare case self-ordained by 'god'....

Sorry but have you met the lady, and do you know her personally, because it sounds like her driver must have driven over your dog at a young age. The Royal Family does to a lot of good with regards to charity functions and what not, and I don't believe that they recieve a huge amount of money from the British government, and I don't think they get a cent from the Canadian government, unless you want to include the GG.
But the from god thing, and the ruling, give it a break, it is a centuries old tradition. I guess at the same time you must hate the pope and organized religion, and wish he would never have set foot in Canada.
