Ok dumbass, type in "Canadian Head of State" in Google. The first link
that popos up is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monarchy_of_Canada and

England.

Talk about WHOOSH.

She is the head of state in a CONSTITUTIONAL MONARCHY.

She is a figurehead.
She doesn't have anything to do with running the country.

Are you really this stupid, or is it just beyond you to let go of a
foolish statement?

You obviously didn't read the list of countries in the world who have
such monarchs.'

Idiot.
