Canada is part of the Commonwealth and her head of state is HM Queen Elizabeth II represented by Governor-General HE Mrs Adrienne Clarkson. I hear she's looking forward to reclaiming the former colonies which were so wrongfully taken from the Crown at Yorktown with the help of the sleazy French. She quite fancies California as well.

I think today's California was even part of the Louisiana Purchase actually (as the territory had no clearly defined Western boundary, or was it the Coast?)
