By the way, Canada has a 90-year tradition of rejecting British titles for Canadian citizens, as being elitist and class-based.

An insightful analysis of the Canadian perspective on British honours is presented by William Galbraith here.

Aren't foreign titles bestowed upon American leaders by the British monarchy an anachronism and affront to the Republic?
