This is a horizontal, color, royalty free stock photograph of French Canadian flags waving in front of Old Montreal architecture in winter weather. Photographed with a Nikon D800 DSLR camera.

In the days since Queen Elizabeth II’s death, residents of Britain’s former colonies and current Commonwealth are reflecting on her legacy. Canada will observe a federal holiday during the state funeral for the Queen on Monday, but some Canadian residents will not spend the day in mourning. We're talking about the mixed reactions in Canada, and Quebec specifically, to the queen’s passing.

Our guest is:

Kate McKenna, a reporter with CBC Montreal
