Best Answer

In the USA, the President is both the head of state and the head of government. In a constitutional monarchy, such as Canada, the Queen, when she is actually in Canada, and otherwise the Queen's representative, the Governor General, is the head of state. The position is generally a ceremonial one. It is a non-political position. The office holder is deemed to be "above politics." In Canada, the prime minister is the head of government.
