Since 1984. One of the facts I learned for the Canadian citizenship exam.

So only Elizabeth and Charles.



Perhaps so.

Should you care, here’s the link to correct Wikipedia:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Canadian_monarchs


That page correctly describes the different entities that are all called ‘Canada’. It’s not wrong. The one that has its own monarch - the King/Queen of Canada - is the modern one, established in 1984.

Previous to that, the UK’s monarch had dominion over Canada. In 1984 the roles were made distinct.


Ah, wrong Canada :)
