Happy 2015 to all. Congratulations first of all to our Queen Mother of the Americas, Nicole the Great, for her leadership especially over the past 9 years. Your fight for equality for all, especially the GLBT, Latino and trans community is very much appreciated. Now as you get ready to mentor your successors, it is to my great excitement and pride to have been reappointed me to serve on this council. I have the honor to serve as Canadian Minister to the Queen Mother and also the corresponding Secretary. I have witnessed how much time the QM has vested in making the decision to move forward, and not lightly. She looked for guidance in this process from her council - the way this whole thing was originally set up to function. Some call for more change, and faster. The success of the ICC/ICS and our court system is that change is not fast. It is slow and determined. Change needs to have a foundation in place for it to be successful. In any government or Monarchy there is always time set aside for transition. I believe that the QM and this council are at the precipice of history. We must remember that it was(is) this Queen Mother, Nicole, who introduced the concept of democracy into our Court System that has now led to an election of her successors. The change that all have been calling for is now on the horizon. There has to be transition from Absolute Monarchy to a constitutional one. History shows us that. There are also many forms of democracy throughout our world - and this hopefully will be a successful experiment with a constitutional Monarchy, one driven by and for the people, while still protecting and defending our legacy and traditions, and modernize so we can open our family up to the next generation and keep the game we cherish so much relevant to and in the communities engaged. The energy generated over the past 48 hours is living proof that this court system is valid, has a place in each of our communities. Going forward we need to bring suggestions where we see breaks; where we hear negative, we need to speak positive; we need to work to heal when we see wounded and broken. We just need to stand together and BELEIVE. In the words of our beloved Jose 1 - United we stand, divided they will pick us off one by one. Never was that more true than today. So let us evoke the memory of Jose, pull up our socks, join hands and march forward! I look forward to being in San Francisco for their Coronation and 50th Celebration at the historic city hall. I welcome all of the 2015 Golden Jubilee members to the council - those who have been here before, those returning, those of you who are newbies. Please know that we are all here to support each other - so if you have any questions whatsoever, please feel free to ask. I thank you ahead of time for accepting this responsibility. Together we can effect so much positive change. I want to thank and congratulate Scott Seibert & Nicole Diamond, 2nd in Line of Succession, Michael Gaffney & Verna Turbulance, 3rd in Line of Succession, John Ribson & Donna Sachet, 4th in Line of Succession and Terry Sidie and Madison Lane Weston, 4th in Line of Succession for your ongoing commitment to council, court and community. I consider all of you friends and allies. I congratulate Emperor Rob Surreal and Empress Coco LaChine on your election as Crown Prince and Crown Princess of the Americas while welcoming the new and returning members of the Golden Jubilee Council, and ask that as we move forward we work together, with respect, and honor the memory of our beloved founder Jose 1, the service and passion of our Queen Mother Nicole the Great...... God Bless the Monarchy Long Live Nicole Huzzah, Huzzah, Huzzah IICC Executive Officer Canadian Minister, Heir Apparent to QM1A Peace Emperor 1 & 7 Surrey Martin Rooney (Storm)
