The only person laughing is usually the person who made the joke and it’s generally just irritating to everyone else who just wants to get on with their day. I might feel differently if we like, got the day off work for April Fools Day I guess

IIRC, both Canada and Australia are still tied to the British monarchy through some technicalities in their independence.
What it realy boils down to, we (and australia, NZ) still have a monarch, it just happens to be the same person as Englands. The office of the Monarch of the Dominion of Canada is not the same office as the Queen of England or the Empress of Great Britain though. To keep consistency, the whole thing has to continue or we just start over and the whole legal deck of cards is reduced to “Yeah we’re a republic now, precedence is gone, straight force for the next while instead of tradition until the new fiction gets to be traditional”
Cheers for the explanation. It’s come up a few times in things I’ve watched and read but I never really got a clear explanation. Just some mention about legal technicalities… And it kind of got glossed over from there.
