In Canada we have a prime minister and no president, and despite being independent we still recognize the king of England. Sort of? It's complicated, like most things as old as the monarchy.

@silvermoon82 I was somehow surprised when I first learned how long your prime minister stays in power.

Although being an American I'm sure everything about our own politics is surprising to you πŸ˜‚

@silvermoon82 neoliberal banker overlord
@silvermoon82 @somcak THIS IS A TRICK QUESTION FOR USIANS!!

@silvermoon82

There is currently disagreement over whether he is President or King

@silvermoon82 @Pinchy63 I voted β€œother” because our Prime Minister is a wet noodle (the next most popular one is worse, sure, but we need to do better in general..)

@silvermoon82

We are not sure what he is.
