This statementof yours:

> The monarchy of Canada is the monarchy in the UK.

is false.

You're right. The Canadian armed forces swear allegiance to the monarch of Canada in the UK, the same man not coincidentally currently monarch of UK. The monarchy of Canada, an abstract idea nebulously exists perhaps everywhere (including in the UK) or nowhere depending on how you consider abstract ideas.

> the same man not coincidentally currently monarch of UK.

As it so happens for the moment.

It's not a bound requirement that such be the case .. as any true student of the history of Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, England, and the Union would well be aware of.
