Canadian royalty may refer to Canadians; who are members of royal families, Canadian through birth, naturalization, or marriage; or Canadian families that are given the epithet or moniker as Canadian royalty or Canadian royals. Additionally, Canada is a monarchy, so members of the Canadian monarchy are Canadian royalty.
Many tribes, bands, nations, have or still have inherited chieftainships, with hereditary chiefs. Canadian colonization of the land required that these First Nations groups have elected band councils and tribal chiefs, which the federal government would recognize and deal with. The colonial expansion also resulted in waves of diseases that have wiped out some hereditary lineages. None of the remaining hereditary chiefs or lineages are recognized as royal by the Canadian governments.[3]
Had Great Britain been invaded by Nazi Germany during World War II, the British (sic Canadian) royal family would have relocated to Canada, during Operation Rocking Horse, into Hatley Castle, Victoria, BC.[4]
