    Very interesting and I can relate. Also, without getting political - notwithstanding my Jacobite Highland and minority Southern Irish heritage, I was raised Canadian and used to sing God Save the Queen as well as O Canada in school each morning.

    More importantly, I swore an oath to Her Majesty when I joined the Canadian Forces. So regardless of any personal views, an oath I swore, so an oath I shall keep.

    I do hope Her Royal Highness had a very happy birthday and that she is blessed with the health and longevity of her mother.
