Is it OK that the Canadian taxpayer should bear the cost of security for Harry & Meghan's move to Canada ?

[quote]Furious Canadians are lashing out over the $1.7 million it will potentially cost to provide security for Harry and Meghan when they move to Canada.

It comes after reports suggested PM Justin Trudeau had already promised the Queen that Canada would cover at least some of the security costs[/quote]

It looks like they want to eat their cake and have it. If they want to give up on their duties as royals, they must give up on their privileges too.

@Cierzo Seems fair.

@Cierzo That's what it boils down to!

@Cierzo I think everyone is being over critical, they can't just give up the privilege. Believe me, commoner's wish they were born into rich and fame, but only the so called privileged children know the burden of not having a normal life! He is forever the son of Diana and charles , grandson of queen Elizabeth the second. You can't just delete history. Do you think the bastards paparazzi will leave them alone? They long for a normal life!

@RadiantRuby People who live a normal life do not have their own security paid by the taxpayer.

@Cierzo I'm sorry but it feels like I'm talking to a brick wall here, Harry can not just wake up and decide to be normal. Hello! [quote]People who live a normal life do not have their own security paid by the taxpayer[/quote] Harry can afford it, this is a smear campaign!

@RadiantRuby Apparently one day he woke up thinking he was a normal person, not a member of the royal family any more. He should learn that there are things in life that cannot be chosen, and accept his origin.
