It’s their work, which companies pay to reuse

The King's royal crown (for Canada) doesn't actually exist as a physical object; when the Queen came she wore one of her tiaras.

He is still the leader of the Conservative Party. That is different from the Parliamentary position “Leader of the Opposition”

National polling is as tight as it’s been all race, the Ontario lead for the Liberals was cut in half over the last ten days.
