How Charles III Intends to “Modernize the Monarchy”
An example of how King Charles intends to implement his desire to “modernize the monarchy” can be seen in the statement that the relationship between the indigenous peoples and the Crown will remain intact. The fact is that a federal day of mourning has been declared for the Queen when she is being buried but no such day was declared to mourn the missing children sent to residential schools when the first set of unmarked graves were uncovered in May of 2021. Instead, it was the people who took their own measures to have public mourning ceremonies and vigils. This goes to the heart of the matter of the kind of relations that exist between the Crown and the indigenous peoples.
It is also an example of how the death of the Queen and the ascension of Charles to the throne are used to cover up all the historical crimes of the rule of the monarchy and divert from the need to renew the constitutional order by replacing it with a Constitution adopted by the people that vests the sovereign decision making power in their hands, not those of a ruling elite.
It is high time the colonial relations with the monarchy and the undemocratic constitutional order and institutions are ended. The constitutional order based on the monarchy and the Westminster system of rule has split society in two — the wealthy, privileged and degenerate element has set itself up to rule over the whole of society. This is nothing worthy of praise.
