In fact, in the (English speaking) Caribbean, its only Trinidad and Dominica (not to be confused with the Spanish speaking Dominican Republic), that are republics. Jamaica is having the same battle of public opinion that Australia and to some extent, Canada is having, as to changing to a republic. Its not that popular as it should be when analysed on paper. The republic seems rather a sideways step, and not a forward step to many. And, its easy to sway people if it is clear that the change is all for the better. that argument has not been made, as far as I know.
