Topic: Commonwealth Charter

1 chapters across the catalog

Joining the British Commonwealth would require a treaty ratified by the U.S. Senate, as the President does not have the unilateral authority to enter such an agreement. The discussion explores the legal definitions of "associate membership" and the role of the Governor General in Commonwealth nations like Canada. Concerns are raised that even a ceremonial link to the British Crown would be a betrayal of the U.S. Constitution and the Revolutionary War's legacy.
