[edit] Canada

Please see my reply to your comment on the talk page. Lexicon (talk) 19:50, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

I have to commend you, Tdadamemd, as I suspect you achieved exactly what you set out to do in the first place. — Dorvaq (talk) 13:06, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
I hope it is evident that my pursuit is toward Truth. It is clear to me on the Talk page others who share that goal, whether or not we are in agreement in our limited perspective of Truth. — Tdadamemd 22:48, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Further Canada talk

I'm going to continue this here because I like to argue, but it really doesn't have anything to do with the article Canada any longer, and therefore does not belong on that talk page.

You wrote:

We are in total agreement that Canada is not a part of the UK and that the UK is not a part of Canada. They have become two separate and distinct countries. And certainly, the Queen does not equal the United Kingdom. I was not saying that Canada is united with the UK. The point was that, while most all measures toward independence have been gained by Canada, there remains the one vestige of a bond in having the same person as Queen.

You said before that there is no such thing as partial independence--it either exists, or it doesn't. Now you're saying that Canada is not a part of the UK, but if it does not have independence, then by your own reasoning, it is, in fact, part of the UK. Unless, as you are maybe coming to a realization, the Queen is, as you have agreed above, not equal to the United Kingdom, so if Canada is "not independent", then that lack of independence would be to the Queen and only the Queen. Now, I'm sure you'll agree that simply having a sovereign does not make a country non-independent, otherwise a good number of countries would lack independence; the United Kingdom itself, Japan, Sweden, Thailand, Saudi Arabia...
So, let's go over this again:
  • A nation cannot be partially independent (I'll say agreed although independence really does go on a continuum)
  • Canada is not part of the UK (agreed)
  • The Queen is not the United Kingdom (agreed)
  • Being a monarchy does not equal lack of independence (I'm going to assume you agree)
But Canada is not independent. Lexicon (talk) 19:33, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I'd say that this discussion has everything to do with the Canada article. Please feel free to move your response back there (as I will post my reply there).
