Most of Her Majesty the Queen's interactions with the Parliament of Canada are through Her Majesty's representative, the Governor General of Canada. The Governor General (for the Queen) summons, prorogues and dissolves the Parliament of Canada, almost always on the advice of the prime minister. The Governor General reads the throne speech at the opening of each parliamentary session, recommends money bills to the House of Commons on the advice of ministers, and appoints senators to the Upper House on the advice of the prime minister.
