I am Canadian, and I can assure you that the head of state is Queen Elizabeth II. The republican movement in Canada is relatively weak and is made up of some infrequently vocal malcontents.

Well, the republicans up here have been watching events Down Under keenly. A lot of them hoped it would lead to a republic, because that would bolster the opinion up here.
