Of those polled, 73% said Canadian taxpayers should not pay for any of the costs associated with living in the country. Prince Harry and Ms. Markle announced in an Instagram post last week they had chosen “to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role” within the royal family.”
She's a US citizen, why doesn't she return to the USA??
What is it with Meghan? First she somehow caused her real family to fall out with her and then she caused her husband's family to fall out with her.

Some of Prince Harry and Meghan’s Markle’s new Vancouver Island neighbours aren’t quite ready to roll out the welcome wagon.
The Tseycum Nation claims the pair’s rented $18-million mansion is built on land “stolen” by British colonizers almost two centuries ago.
“We get no money from the land now, nothing. But for us, it’s just not right houses like that are built there,” Chief Tanya Jimmy told the Sunday Mirror.
According to Jimmy, her ancestors signed a treaty allowing colonizers to take the land for “a few hundred dollars [because they] didn’t realize what they were doing.”
Now, she wants Harry and Meghan to cough up a land acknowledgment and recognize the ancestors buried on it.

Brits settled on Vancouver Island around 1843.
Harry and Meghan spent six-weeks over the Christmas holidays at the posh palace, believed to be owned by a Russian oligarch.
And since the couple severed their ties with the Royal Family, it appears that Vancouver Island will be the pair’s base of operations for the foreseeable future.
They have said they plan to split their time between Canada and the U.K.
Meanwhile, the Mail on Sunday reported that it was Markle’s mother, Doria Ragland, who was the driving force behind Megxit.
A friend of the yoga instructor squealed to the tabloid that Doria “silently” pushed the pair to quit the Royals.
“When Meghan and Harry announced they were walking away from their jobs as Royals to be financially independent, it immediately smacked of Doria. Being financially independent has always been important to her,” the source told the Mail.
“Harry, in particular, turns to her (Doria) for advice. She is like the Queen – she never complains and never explains.”

Doria has already made a number of trips their British Columbia redoubt where she advises and dotes over Archie, her eight-month-old grandson.

“She isn’t someone who seeks attention, and for Harry, her discretion and silence mean the world,” the friend said. “Meghan has always trusted her completely but she has become a rock to Harry who, of course, lost his own mother so young.”
The friend added: “She’s laid-back, and people see her nose ring and dreadlocks which are cool – but make no mistake, she has a core of steel. Underestimate her at your peril.”

Looks like I had better check the current value of some properties I have owned in the past .I find her comment in the article kinda funny
Well our ancestors did sign a contract and they did get paid, but they didn't understand what it be worth in the future so the land was actually stolen and now we must be made whole.
I thought it wasn't about the money Cliffy?

Yeah I was thinking of the Homesteaders that paid $10 for a 1/4 sold for $40-$100 to a neighbour when they failed, now worth up to $8,000.00 per acre for the same 1/4. According to her the failed homesteaders should be made whole, and persons that think like Cliffy are falling for it hook, line, and sinker.
If globull warming works like we are led to believe it will the indians got a good deal when they sold Manhattan as it will soon all be underwater and worthless.Yeah I was thinking of the Homesteaders that paid $10 for a 1/4 sold for $40-$100 to a neighbour when they failed, now worth up to $8,000.00 per acre for the same 1/4.

Manhattan will eventually (even in geological time measurements) be doomed as you say, but Vancouver island (and surrounding area) should rise due to Isostatic Rebound where Megan & Harry have their rental home.If globull warming works like we are led to believe it will the indians got a good deal when they sold Manhattan as it will soon all be underwater and worthless.
TONY PARSONS Meghan and Harry by all means demean yourselves, but don’t demean our Queen

WE can safely say that investment bankers at Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan are not obsessed with Harry and Meghan because she was in Suits.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex owe their global superstar status — and their massive earning potential — to their royal connections.
Harry and Meghan might not realise it, but they owe their global superstar status — and their massive earning potential — to their royal connections
That is the wonderful irony about our runaway royals.
Harry and Meghan may despise everything about the royal life — the endless scrutiny, the boring engagements, all those fixed smiles for the peasants when they could be hanging out with Oprah and the Obamas and the Clooneys.
We get it. We truly do.
But do Harry and Meghan understand and ever admit to themselves that they owe EVERYTHING to their royal connections?
Without the magic dust that royalty bestows, JP Morgan — one of the world’s richest banks — would never have flown them in a private jet to an exclusive company beano. Don’t tell Greta Thunberg!
And without his royal blood, Prince Harry would not be in talks with Goldman Sachs about a future relationship.
A DUTY OF CARE
If they were not British royalty, Meghan would be a B-list actress whom few people had ever heard of and Harry an old soldier with two rotten A-levels (grade B in art and D in geography) from Eton — a school where my dog Stan could get four good grades and an offer from Oxbridge.
I do not doubt Harry and Meghan’s sincerity when they say they want to be financially independent.
But because they are poncing on royal connections, the couple have a duty of care to the Queen and to this country.
Please don’t embarrass the Royal Family, or British people who shelled out £32million for your wedding.
Please do not turn into the preening glove puppets of investment bankers.
Oh Harry, please don’t turn into Tony Blair in a tiara.
Oh Meghan, don’t become the 21st-century Fergie.
Prince Andrew’s reckless friendship with convicted billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein has humiliated and damaged the Royal Family.
Andrew’s total lack of judgment may have done irreparable harm to the monarchy.
Many of us wonder if the institution will last after the Queen has gone.
So show some dignity, Harry and Meghan. Engage your brains, not your bank balance.
Have a little DISCRETION. Please do not pimp your royal connections to any passing dodgy billionaire or investment banker who claims to care deeply about your charity work.

Frankly, it doesn’t look good so far.
The nation cringed when Prince Harry buttonholed Disney boss Bob Iger at the London premiere of The Lion King, aggressively pitching Meghan’s availability for “voiceover” work.
A member of the Royal Family begging a Hollywood big-shot for work was not a pretty sight.
When they handed in their letter of resignation, Harry and Meghan made lofty announcements about “collaborating” with the Queen, as though Her Majesty, 93, is some grime DJ who could be brought in to remix their latest single.
The brutal truth is that we will not see much of Harry and Meghan in these parts.
This week they sacked 15 loyal UK staff and shut their Buckingham Palace office.
But by turning their backs on the royal life, Harry and Meghan have placed themselves in an almost impossible situation.
They claim to want to be financially independent of Prince Charles and the British taxpayer.
Then they will have to grab the big pay days where they can.
They will have to earn phenomenal sums of money to fund the lavish lifestyle to which they are accustomed.
But there is absolutely nothing in either of their CVs to suggest they can make that kind of dough without flogging their royal connections to the highest bidder.
If Harry and Meghan are going to support themselves, they are going to have to get their hands dirty in the working world.
Harry and Meghan will have to earn phenomenal sums of money to fund the lavish lifestyle to which they are accustomed.
Harry’s discussions with Goldman Sachs may be focused on his charity work right now, but investment bankers are not renowned for their boundless human compassion.
Big bankers — and mega-rich companies like Netflix and Apple — will look at Harry and Meghan and wonder what they can get out of them.
Harry and Meghan are free to demean themselves, as Harry did so spectacularly when he shook his diamond-encrusted begging bowl at the boss of Disney.
But please don’t demean this country.
Please don’t debase the Royal Family, as Prince Andrew has done.
Please, Harry and Meghan — do not embarrass the Queen.
Because let’s face it, chaps — without your royal connections, the pair of you really don’t add up to very much at all.
Leo's a teeny-weeny politician now
LEO Varadkar, Irish Prime Minister and Brussels lapdog, sneered, “Britain is now a small country!” when the UK left the European Union.
Now Leo has seen his Fine Gael party poll a wretched 20.9 per cent of the vote in the Irish general election, going from power to third place overnight.
Looks like Leo Varadkar is a teeny-weeny politician now.
