The head of monarchy of Canada is residing in the UK. Being a monarch of UK isn't same as being monarch in UK. The Canadian monarch is in the UK, this is fact.

>y're different sovereign entities that have the same office holder and follow the same rules of succession (from the Act of Settlement)

this "argument" makes no sense whatsoever

It only makes no sense if you don't understand the monarch of Canada is in the UK, and thus is monarch in but not necessarily of UK. (But really the same dude and mostly defended as separate as some sort of weird commonwealth saving of face about your nation swearing allegiance to the guy who's the monarch of UK)
