The Head of the Commonwealth is HM Queen Elizabeth II, who is also Head of State of 16 Commonwealth Countries.

What is Commonwealth Day?

Commonwealth Day is the 2nd Monday in March (9 March in 2009 and 8 March in 2010) and celebrates the 54 countries which make up the Commonwealth. So why isn't it a Public Holiday accross the Commonwealth?
