Anyway, I have a non-photography question: I was surprised to still see "Royal" in the title of a fair held in Canada. Is this a holdover from when the Queen of Britain was still sovereign over Canada? Or is my memory so out of whack that I think that ended, but it hasn't?

Of course it is a holdover.

Did you honestly think it has another explanation, or do you just want to jab away at how silly it is that Canadians still have an antiquated relationship with the British monarchy?

unless we elected a king and I wasn’t notified. Maybe that was what you thought happened.
