Citizens for a Canadian Republic, a non-partisan, not-for-profit Canadian corporation, believes it is time for Canada to become a parliamentary republic with a resident, democratically selected Canadian as head of state, instead of a non-resident, hereditary monarch.

We believe this goal can be achieved without compromising our heritage, parliamentary traditions or our membership in the Commonwealth, where most nations are already republics.
