Canberra residence for Queen suggested
A Queensland letter in The Times by Hugh Sydney argues for a Queen's partial residence in Canberra. Archbishop Gough backs a Buckingham Palace style stay for months each year or every two years to strengthen unity and the Commonwealth. He says the Queen should live among Australians as Queen of Australia rather than as a visitor. He asserts such proximity would deepen loyalty and bridge non British stock concerns among merchants.
