Frequently Asked Questions

Why is your site named kickboxthequeen.com?
Aren't you also challenging the queen to a math test too?

It is true that the queen has the option of choosing a math test instead
of a kickboxing match. But would you want to type in:

www.kickboxing_match_or_math_test_for_the_monarchy_of_canada.com?

I didn't think so.

My friends tried to reach the site, but couldn't
get through. What gives?

Since the site went up, we've experienced both denial of service attacks
as well as email-bomb attacks from pro-monarchists. The email bombing
doesn't affect us (we connect via a T1), but the denial of service attacks
have affected others being able to connect to the website. To combat this,
we've put up a mirror site:

Please pass this link onto your friends.

I signed up for the newsletter but haven't received anything. What happened?

Many people have signed up for the newsletter, but forgot to include their
email address. Simply re-submit the survey with your email address and we'll be
sure to send the next newsletter to you.

What kind of math test are we talking about?

We'll keep it simple - simple algebra. If Lizzy wants we can bump it up a
level to include differential equations, etc.

Don't you live in the U.S.?

Yep. I'm working here in NYC on a contract, but I have no plans on moving here.
I was born in, and have lived more than 88% of my life in Canada. Lizzy can say neither.
If I do become king, I will move back to Canada (even though most monarchists see nothing
wrong with rulers living abroad).

What's the point of this site?

To generate a debate about the ludicrousness of the monarchy. We make no
money from this site (in fact, it costs us money to keep the site up).

What will you replace the monarchy with?

Nothing. The monarch plays no real active role in Canadian politics - the monarchists even admit this. An old monarchist ploy is to muddle the waters with "well if you scrap the Queen, you have to replace her with something." Why? Our government functions effectively now - let's strip an unelected foreigner of ultimate power in our country and be done with it. The world won't end.

Are the hate mail letters for real? Some of them sound too crazy to be true.

I swear, all the hate mail posted on this site is bona fide - straight from
the nutbars themselves! I haven't posted the more threatening ones for a few
reasons; I don't want to give them a public forum, and most are plain vulgar.

How can I help?

Get the word out! Tell your friends (and enemies) about the site, write letters
to the editor or call talk-shows and tell them how you feel about the monarchy.
And feel free to give us an on-air plug!
