      What seems likely to me is slowly changing things bit by bit. I don’t think the UK would mind either, it’s just a matter of spending time and effort (and money) making those legal changes.

      The final constitutional change seems unlikely anytime soon. It’s very unlikely that all the provinces will agree to play ball and get it done unless there was an urgent need to get rid of it.

      It doesn’t affect us day-to-day no, but honestly I like being part of a ‘Commonwealth’. I like feeling like I have something in common with Australia, or New Zealand, or the UK, even if I’ve only ever been to the UK for a few hours.

      Your family name (for most people, unless you’re George Hitler) has no impact on your day-to-day, this to me seems like saying “We should just get rid of family names!”
