A Collection of Loyal Quotes: Part Four

While I've been doling out quotes a few at a time the
Monarchist League of Canada has an excellent quote page.
It has both some of the Queen's more memorable quotes
about Canada as well as quotes by Canadians about their
monarchy. 

"I have a considerable regard for
The Queen and the monarchy
although I’m a New Democrat and a
socialist. I think that the monarchy
has validity at a time when
everything else is flying off in all
directions. I’d like to tell her that
she’s had a tough road and I sure in
hell wouldn’t change places with her.
I admire her stubborn refusal to
break down and take the easy way,
to conform with the constantly
changing public image of how our leaders should act."

~Farley Mowat, author and environmentalist

"If you'll forgive me going all
Bagehotian for a moment, in a
country such as Canada, the post-
election Speech from the Throne is
the defining act of constitutional
monarchy: the Queen or her viceroy
comes to parliament to read words
placed in her mouth by the Prime
Minister of her newly elected
government. It's the logical endpoint
of Magna Carta: the state as
servant of the people."

~Mark Steyn, author, journalist, and commentator

"We recall, with great honour, the
political and military bond of
mutual affection and alliance that
has marked the relationship
between the Mohawk people and
the British and Canadian Crown
for the last three centuries."

~R. Donald Maracle, Chief of the Mohawks of Bay of Quinte
