  • Canada became legally sovereign in 1931. A sovereign country can choose to do as it pleases with its various institutions, within limits set by the Constitution. The limits in 1931 allowed Canada to leave "the old machinery" of amendment temporarily with the UK. Amendment power is different from legislative power, which Canada possessed domestically in full measure for self-government under the Constitutional formula at s. 91, "Peace, Order and Good Government".

  • Moreover, the same Constitutional limits in 1931 prohibited Trudeau in 1982 from adding a Charter to the Constitution which drastically altered the nature of government & powers in Canada, as well as illegally reducing & limiting the rights guaranteed to us under Magna Carta. The Charter was and is an illegal amendment and has never been JUDICIALLY reviewed in a competent COURT; the advisory or opinion jurisdictions of the Supreme Court & appellate courts are NON-judicial with no force of law.

  • The Queen Still owns you!

    check it out!

    read the fine print!

  • I hope you earned an A+, cool clip.

    One last step to the Canadian Story, once and for all we have a Head of State which is born, raised, breathes, and is Canadiana.

    Maybe Justin Trudeau! Would be awesome to see him complete the Trudeau-Canadian Family Realm.

  • Yes, that's right; because Canada, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Jamaica, Britain, St. Lucia, & the rest share one person as their respective monarch doesn't mean any is dependant on the other; each has it's own unique monarchy, just the same individual as monarch. The poster to whom I was responding inferred that Canada wasn't independent simply because it remains a kingdom.

  • The Governer General was the QUEENS Head house nigger before and after this date,and The Priminister is still the Govener Generals house-boy...

    The Charter of rights and freedoms paints over Our HUMAN RIGHTS.

    What is the CANADIAN CONSTITUTION ?

  • Wtf are you on about?

  • GET A CLUE U BRAINWASHED CITIZEN!!!! This video is for only those who have their heads sunken deep in the sand. WAKE UP!!!

  • This is absurd. Canada + the UK have a long, rich history (including WWI + WW2). Newfoundland was given to them. Why spurn that now? The Queen is a nice, symbolic person. She doesn't do anything. I'd rather have the Queen be Head of State than Black Obama/Bush!! God Save The Queen :)

  • aw! fuck you with that black obama shit you just mad cause you a ice brit. at lease us americans don't have no one over us in another country. we can go and come to where ever the us rules or govern's you can't go to the uk unless on visa step brit lol

  • Yes, people travelling between foreign states require a visa. Aren't you a clever boy for figuring that out! Now, here's another concept for you to ponder: when your president is in another country, is he still "over" you or not?

  • @bigpoppalarge the American Passport is one of the worst passports.Every single country hates you.

  • oh and btw fuck the queen and her family fucking son and his two bastard family fucking kids too.

  • now lets take back control of out monetary system

  • Great video, well done!

  • your dreaming Canada is still the dominion of the Queen dominion means its a plantion and all of us over here are her subjects. Wake up slave and try to avoid participating in the second plank to the Communist manifesto a heavy and progressive income tax.

  • it even says it in the oath.

    I, [name], do Solemnly swear (affirm) that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Queen of Canada, Her Heirs and Successors according to law, forever. So help me God.

  • I don't get it. What are you talking about Napostriouf? Are you saying 300,000 quebec canadians have been deported to North Korea that nobody noticed? wtf?

  • Canada received true independence in 1931 with the statute of Westminster. The Queen, who holds the title, reigns but doesn't rule.

  • Canada did NOT receive true independence in 1982. Canada in 2009 is still a Constitutional Monarchy. Technically, the Queen, not the people, appoints ALL persons to the posts of Government and Cabinet in Parliament,and the PM has to ASK the Gov. General (representative of the Queen) to dissolve,suspend,and open parliament. The Queen also retains veto (through the Gov. General) on ANY bill passed by the government, and has royal perogative to this day to pull a PM or Cabinet minister at any time.

  • Er, what part of constitutional monarchy doesn't equate with independence? Or, do you think that Norway, Spain, Sweden, Japan, Australia, the UK, Belgium, Denmark, Thailand, etc., etc. are not independent countries?

  • Comment removed

  • 1 - It's not "re-" patriation, which implies we've done it before, it's "patriation". In 1982 we patriated (or tried to) NOT the Constitution, but simply an AMENDING formula for the Constitution of Canada. The power to amend had resided in the UK since the date of our TRUE "patriation," 1931, when the Statute of Westminster conferred full legal sovereignty on Canada. 1982 added nothing but amendment and a Charter.

  • 2 - Part V of the Constitution Act, 1982, supposedly contains the Amending Formula (i.e., "formulae"). However, there are legal and technical problems with it that have been swept under the rug. Including the fact that while the "machinery" to amend was provided, someone forgot to confer the actual "power" to use it. Powere is "jurisdiction" and must conferred by express words, not implied. No express words confer "power" to use the amending formulae.

  • 3 - Errors were made by Canada and the UK at the time of the "patriation" of 1982. Trudeau had no power to add the CHARTER which alters the powers of the federal Parliament and provincial legislatures. Section s.7(1) of the Statute of Westminster, 1931 prohibits such alteration: "7. (1) Nothing in this Act shall be deemed to apply to the repeal, amendment or alteration of the British North America Acts, 1867 to 1930, or any order, rule or regulation made thereunder."

  • Comment removed

  • 5 - For the 1982 "patriation" to be legally challenged, a section 96 Court (Superior court of a province) must be seized of the subject matter, and render a judgment subject to appeal. Canada has a largely illegal Constitution, thanks to Trudeau; which has never been challenged in a real "Court" of law. However, there is still time.

  • oh and btw, our military still swears alleigence to the queen

  • Any government job has to.

  • do you swear allleigence to the queen?

  • Both. Canada and the Queen. And you have to understand the Queen has all thi power but we are independant 100% she isnt about to come here and say i want this this and this for the most part it is only tradition.

  • it just seems a silly tradition when we have our men and women that are involved in running the country swearing alliegence to the queen...

    i mean...if i swear alligence to something or someone i'd tend to take that seriously.

  • no, i do not work for the government or military therefore i do not swear alleigence to the queen.

    all i ever said was that i would 'stand on guard for thee'. "thee" being Canada. And I agree with that much.

  • And i also take an oath very seriously, i didnt say it was silly tradition,

    I belive it is important

    and even on that oath it says the queen of Canada not England, thus in it self says oath to Canada and its Queen.

    but she happens to be queen of many places.

  • I know...but Canada has no queen. It means the Queen of England.

    It's just interesting to know where the power really lies. People have strange ideas about how things work sometimes.

  • no there is actually a Queen of Canada.

    she is Also the Queen of England

    and Queen of the other 15 monarchies in the Commonwealth. she is the Queen of that Country and England.

  • @SirFact Well if you want to get technical about everything then she actually isn't the queen of England, she's the queen of Britain.

  • @Bogging4 Well if you want to get technical about everything then she is actually the queen of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

  • if we have no queen then why is she able to dissolve our government and fly the Union Jack on our flags??? are you drunk?

  • Ahhhhh but you're a Canadian citizen, therefore a subject of her Majesty and that be default means you have given allegience to her even though you never swore an actual oath.

  • @Aro2220 But any land you have purchased, you actually don't own in Canada. We Canadians are "freeholders" of land. It means we lease it...from guess who? The Crown.

  • if you're going to put a song in the background of a commentary make sure it doesn't have words.

    i'm having a hard time focusing on your words and not get distracted by the lover boy or whoever this is

  • So why the hell she still is on our money?

  • jazu40 - what money ?

    Canada signed a lease with the Queen to uphold her policy sovereignly. You don't think the French sailed across 4000 miles of ocean do you ? Where - as stowaways?

  • No offense, but you have dominion not sovereignty.

    Why do you think it is called Dominion Day not Independence Day?

  • Uhh what? Where have you been living for the last thirty years? It hasn't been called Dominion Day since 1982 when it was renamed Canada Day.

  • Canada is not governed by itself, that date was the making of the constitutional monarchy, it was just a switch. All they did was give the queen rules she had to abide by.

  • The Ogdensburg accord was a military treaty between the US and Canada, nothing more. :rolleyes:

  • The charter is a turdpile. - why? because of the notwithstanding clause, for one. It's a socialist's dream come true, a nightmare for people who want to keep everything they worked so hard for all their lives.

  • If you think we are a sovereign nation look to the Ogdensburg Accord of 1940 when the British sold us to the Americians.

  • Freeing Canada from the British??? Canada is not sovereign when your head of state is the Queen of england?? If it is sovereign why are Agents of the Queen needed in almost every passing of a bill?

    Check who has stock in the Bank of Canada in the actual Act it self...the QUEEN! Funny because I a Canadian can't have any!?!

    Canada is not sovereign.

    Definition - A sovereign is the supreme lawmaking authority...and she be the Queen...wake up!

  • Great video! your ending credit song is much louder than when you were talking.

  • 1982 -- As Queen of Canada Her Majesty proclaims the Constitution Act 1982 on 17th April, which revised the Canadian Constitution, maintaining the monarchical nature of Canada and the Queen's authority as Sovereign. In March, as Queen of the United Kingdom , Her Majesty had given royal assent to the Canada Act which provided for the Constitution Act and transferred the residual powers of amending the Canadian Constitution held by the British Parliament to the authority of the Queen of Canada.

  • I was born in Canada, I live in Canada, and I'll probably die in Canada, but to be honest, I really don't have any real sense of national patriotism or reverance towards Canada, at least in the sense that "Canada" refers to a unique culture or set of traditions. Frankly, I'd be just as content with the stars and stripes rather than the maple leaf waving in the wind on local flagpoles.

  • that's sad and avtually quite horrid. loss of freedom not from attack without but by malaise within. well done, you represent eveything I hate.

  • No offence my friend, but when replying to other people's comments, trying and say something meaningful instead of this pathetic verbal diarrhea.

  • LOL. you're ao predictable - you put a -1 on my comment. And i wouldn't be your friend, having my freedom sacrificed because of laziness is not a good idea.

  • snowstormcan - if the flags are blue & white only , you know you have been drugged and taken to another country by bus.

  • You numb nuts, you are owned. wake up!

    Just listen to this idiot, a hockey series was an important event in Sovreignty and freedom. Are canadians that stupid, c'mon who owns the Bank of Canada ??? !WAKE UP! Get proerly educated or at the very least

    !INFORMED!

    !.

  • You, sir, are the one who needs to wake up. Your definition of "informed" right now is that Canada has been "sold" to the U.S. I mean give me a break! There has been NO incidents of countries buying other countries...EVER! Another thing, when the hell is it mentioned in the video that the soviet/canada hockey series is part of our sovreignty and freedom, he clearly states parts of HISTORY. Maybe you should stop ripping on a young man's school work and be damn proud of the country you live in.

  • lol we became free AFTER the repatriation of the constitution? Because you know, there was no democratic tradition in Canada previous to that just typical liberal whitewashing BULLSHIT

  • Long live Canada,

    GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!!!

  • The constitution act wasn't about Canada becoming sovereign. The British are very happy to let us go.

  • Harper would bend over to lick bushs asshole.

  • i sent u a message to your account

  • well, good point.

    i agree to a large extent.

    i like living in Vancouver.

  • Thank you.

    I'd like to live in Vancouver. It's hell to be a liberal in Calgary.

  • to what extent do you think has canada become an autonomous nation in the 20th century?

    Merci.

  • Actually, believe it or not, I'm from Alberta...though I'm certainly not proud of it.

    In my opinion, confederation aside, Canada gained almost all of it's autonomy during the 20th century.

  • @SomeoneII I'm from Alberta and I'm proud. Why are you not?

    

  • great.

    oh god.

    Are you by any chance from British Columbia?---i am.

    i very much appreciate learning about the constitution of Canda.

  • By the way, in my Blog i do explaining it more deeply in English. Because, i think, that if we want one day things to stop, Canadians must know too, why we are acting like this, why we do as much polemic. I know my english isn't the best, at least, i do the effort to talk and explain in the language.

  • Pierre Elliott Trudeau = Charles Montgomery Burns

    Same attitude, same kind of respect, same ego, same dictator, same serial mass murders commander, same kind of denyial of reality.

  • I'm sorry. What?

    Excuse me if I don't understand exactly what you're trying to say, but, even if I completely comprehended how most of these comments fit the persona of Trudeau, I'd hardly be inclined to agree.

    Just an aside: I noticed on your page that you were a Quebecois. A seperatist by chance?

  • I'm not separatist, i'm not against the independance of Quebec, however, that's not my main. My only fight is to make stop the oppression that we lived every day. I don't consider myself as Québécois, but has Kanadiens with K. As my ancestor was called too. In fact, most of people who's calling themself Québécois are in fact from Irish origin.

  • Friendly to us, and we are friendly to them too, however, that's an ethnical difference that is important because what we lived here are very hard and different between our ethnic. Do you know that over 300 000 Kanadiens was deported outside from Canada and never came back between 1970 and 1989? Do you know that my mother was without any other choix to flee Canada to go to North Korea as political refugee, the reason why that i'm born at Pyongyang instead my home?

  • Two things. One,Napostriouf, what are you talking about? Open your eyes, look, and listen, Quebec is getting what they want, accept it and move on. Second, Pierre Elliott Trudeau DOES NOT EQUAL Charles Montgomery Burns. You'd be crazy to think he does. SomeoneII, didn't like the movie at all.

  • And mostly what i'm talking about? You know, that is over 150 000 french people from Montreal and rural in Quebec currently living in North Korea as refugee? I'm born too to North Korea, my mother does fleeing that. My uncles and aunt doesn't got the same chance to flee. Some people, like my family does return after 1989, when things started to changed. You know, that theese thing, that the governement and Liberal party will never talk, because this is their crime.

  • Mr.Trudeau we have finished sucking the oil wealth out of the west and we're destroying the Canadian Forces as we speak.

    Trudeau: Excellent.

  • Don't get me wrong, props for wearing your heart and country's flag on your sleeve, but I don't really want to see something about the soverignity of a nation that I just finished learning about IN social studies. Leave the schooling to the establishment.

  • What you learned about you're social studies, it's was it is accessible to you. When a governement is on conflict with a people they control almost everything in the nation. And mostly, everything about doctrine. Just understand, that when they denial, that mean for them that is not existing. About the same strategy that NAZI does to denied the existance of Jewish genocide.

  • And just for future reference, that was the worst flag waving in the wind I've ever seen. Lastly, one comment.... I never knew everyone in parliment clapped at the same time... Guess nobody wants to be different!

  • What are you talking about, which flag? Are you talking about the England flag with color changed and 4 lys flower added to make the current Quebec flag of soumission. We're not doing anything about our identity, that's a myth. That's a false debate; in fact thoose whoose debating about this are not us. You know that Gilles Duccepp is Irish origin? They've a different fight, cause they don't live the same thing that we live everyday here.

  • Come off the Quebec stuff. We understand you feel opressed and the like, now leave it be

  • They have another culture and that's right. We doesn't matter about this, but just understand that this is not us.

  • You've made that perfectly clear and it changes nothing

  • Great job!
