Separation of Church and State.

While the Canadian mind accepts the idea of separation of church and state, actually it is a concept borrowed from the US. If anyone does any research at all, they would understand Canada's entire legal system, common law, has catholic/Anglican law at its roots. Furthermore, so long as Canada has a queen or king, we are under the wing of the Anglican church. That is the fact. Obviously we don't think that way. But I do find it ironic this comes from a quote of a US document.
