THE KING OF CANADA

[To the Editor of THE SPECTATOR] Snt,—Your description of. His Majesty as " King of Canada " seems to be wanting in precision on constitutional grounds. The Dominion of Canada does not possess, or desire to possess, the status of a kingdom. As the inscription on our coinage clearly indicates, the British Crown is indivisible ; and the constitutional position of His Majesty on landing in Canada would appear to be " King of the Canadians."—Yours faithfully, W. E. J. LINDFIELD.
