interesting,
just read this on another forum
Yes, Elizabeth II is the Queen of Canada among other states within the Commonwealth Realms. These include the UK, Austrailia, Jamaica, New Zealand, and a bunch others. The Queen is more a cultural icon so she doesn't really do much in the way of government and politics in the UK and probably next to nothing at all in Canada and other nations. I believe Canada traditionally mints their coins based on the ruling monarch at the time.
