There are a lot of reasons to be proud of being Canadian, but being associated with the Royals and ensuring that their progeny are wealthy and privileged isn't one of them.

The whole concept of a monarch seems immoral to me. I don't see how anyone who values democracy, freedom and the rewards of hard work would not feel offended every time a "royal" comes to honour us with their presence.
Because without them you wouldn't have any of these things. We fought no war of independence, the British were smart and civil with us and allowed us to become who we are. You remind me of a spoiled child mouthing off at his parents.
