I have reread my post. I did mention that the Queen of Canada is an Anglican, and said (in what I thought would be be obviously a jest) that the current prime minister thinks that what is good enough for Jesus and the Queen is good enough for Canada. I did not, however, suggest that Anglicanism is the established church of Canada. I know better than to suggest that, since I studied hard to pass my citizenship exam before becoming a Canadian in January 1985.

In the interest of full disclosure, I did not vote for Harper. I always voted for NDP, Parti Québécois or Green Party candidates.
