Book cover Contemporary Orangeism in Canada

Abstract

This chapter presents views and perspectives on the monarchy. This includes values and beliefs surrounding the monarchy, both as a cultural symbol and as a constitutional principle. This chapter begins with an explanation of the meaning of the Crown for Canadian Orangemen and continues with an assessment of the impact of the recent pro-monarchist Conservative government on the Canadian Orange Order. This chapter explores the monarchy and multiculturalism, ethno-racial diversity, and adherence to certain symbolic rituals, such as singing the Royal Anthem and pledging allegiance to the Queen. This chapter concludes with an exploration of the personalization and modernization of the monarchy and its impact on Canadian Orangemen.
