The lack of education. A lot of people, including many Canadians, think of HM as "The Queen of England" (When there isn't even such a position any longer).
The League needs to spend more effort on teaching to the Canadian public, and especially making sure that schools teach children, about the Crown.
I remember some time back reading an article about a class in Australia being spoken to by a person from Australians for Constitutional Monarchy and another from the Australian Republic Movement. In the end nearly all of the students had changed their minds, now thinking that Constitutional Monarchy is the better system for Australia instead.
Aside of the pomp and ceremony, theres a lot more meaning to the Crown. People need to know about that.
