    False.

    Canada is no longer under British Jurisdiction, thus Canada is an independent country.

    Now, Canada does pay homage to their heritage.

    But the monarch of Britain is largely ceremonial nowadays anyway.

    False. She is the "Queen regnant of sixteen independent sovereign states known informally as the Commonwealth realms: the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica, Barbados, the Bahamas, Grenada, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Belize, Antigua and Barbuda, and Saint Kitts and Nevis."

    "She holds each crown separately and equally in a shared monarchy, as well as acting as Head of the Commonwealth, and Supreme Governor of the Church of England."

    "...in 1952, Elizabeth became Head of the Commonwealth, and queen of seven independent Commonwealth countries: the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan, and Ceylon, later renamed Sri Lanka."

    Quite correct, she, or in her absence, the Governor General, is the Head of State, but not head of government.

    False
    I would say, considering here In Britain she's not anything to do with the government.. That it's unlikely she is in Canada.

    I hear you have her picture on your money? If I was from Canada, that would piss me off.. You should have a Canadian!

    I *THINK* she's the head of state, not head of government. That would be the prime minister.
