There hasn't been a King of England since 1702.

But there is a King of Canada.

Yep. He has a few other roles as well but being King of Canada is the best one since Canada is really big.

You know the queen died, right?

Yes? What does that have to do with this? There hasn't been a "Queen of England" since 1707.

Technically the monarch of Great Britain is also the monarch of the countries in Great Britain.

That is technically correct, which is the best kind of correct. It's still not the official title of the Canadian monarch, though.

I would be in favour of changing his title from "King of Canada" to "King of Kensington", but only if he changes his name to Larry and opens up a convenience store. ;)
