Canada, the Crown, and Who Really Writes the Laws
Teresa Platt joins Trent Loos from France on Across the Pond to examine how Canada's status as a Commonwealth realm shapes its policies on immigration, climate change, and taxes. Teresa explains how allegiance to the British Crown affects national sovereignty, why Canada's growing alignment with the European Union raises economic concerns, and how citizen-subject relationships differ in France, the UK, and Canada. The two also review new research showing a 10-point drop in support for Canada's monarchy over 20 years, discuss how lobbyists write legislation for politicians, and recall Teresa's six-month press kit on the BSE Mad Cow crisis story.
