True or False: Canada is the only constitutional monarchy in North America.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Not mentioned

  4. Ambiguous

The correct answer is: True

This statement is true because Canada's federal and provincial governments operate within the framework of a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy. This is in contrast to the United States, which operates as a federal presidential constitutional republic. Therefore, Canada is the only country in North America with a monarch as the head of state and a written constitution that outlines the system of government. The other options, such as "False" or "Ambiguous," are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the political system of Canada. "Not mentioned" is also incorrect because the question specifically asks about Canada, making it clear that the answer is either true or false.
