Nothing wrong with having Friends, regardless of how they became friends. We are Canadian after all.

Certain segments of the populations in Commonwealth countries might not view the "shared history" as something they'd really like to celebrate. IMO, if you're actually serious about reconciling the harm caused by colonialism, the absolute minimum you could do is stop celebrating it. I realize I'm going to be in the minority on this one, though.
