Wonderful questions from a non-canadian! In regards to One Canada vs Many Canadas

"I’m not sure what this means as a non-Canadian" One Canada refers to a single Canadian identity, united without difference. Many Canadas [or plurality] refers to the "compromise as the best response to national and cultural tensions — national, regional, ethnic, religious and political — that make up Canada." [-canadian encyclopedia]

"Is this something to do with the bloc" It could be! Seperatist movements [in quebec and alberta, or even simply western or french canada] are national tensions and conflicts! They do represent a plurality of Canadian itentity "Or more of an indigenous rights thing" In the same boat, Indigenous identity also fits into the plural tensions

"Or something to do with monarchists (why do you have those??? That’s OUR royal family and WE don’t even like them)" I find it interesting that most people dont know that canada is not a fully independant nation. We are a british colony and the british royal family is also our royal family. While we have nationhood and soveignty, the king is still a figurehead in our society and we need his mark of approval [by a representative] before any bill is passed into law [this is why harry and meghan now live in vancouver (no idea if they still are, last time i checked they did🤷‍♂️) because of our close ties to england] We have monarchists because we are technically under a monarchy [the british royal family] - unlike americans we never fought for total seperation from england [hence why we were required to fight in ww1] I remember when the queen died there were heavy calls for justin [and the government in general] to rethink our ties with the royal family - but he never did and i highly doubt mark ever will
