What is the role of Canada's Governor General?
The key role of the Governor General, as the representative of Her Majesty the Queen of Canada, is to ensure that Canada always has a prime minister. The Governor General invites the person best able to command the support of a majority of members of the House of Commons to become the prime minister. When a prime minister resigns, or dies, or is dismissed, the Governor General must immediately appoint a replacement pursuant to this convention. The Governor General may exercise a degree of personal discretion, however, when no party holds a majority of House of Commons seats.

Government in Canada?
Canada is a Constitutional Monarchy with a parliamentary form of government.The "government" can refer to two concepts.The Canadian government as a general concept refers to the entire structure of government in Canada, and includes three branches: the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch.Executive BranchThe executive branch of Canadian government means the Queen (represented by the Governor General) exercising the powers and authority of the State on the advice of the Queen's Privy Council for Canada. In practical terms, this means that executive power is only exercised on the advice of ministers who are responsible to the elected House of Commons. These ministers are frequently referred to as the "Cabinet."Legislative BranchThe legislative branch of Canadian government refers to the work of the Parliament of Canada, which consists of the Queen (represented by the Governor General), the Senate (an appointed chamber), and the House of Commons (an elected chamber). The House of Commons is by far the dominant chamber in the development of legislation, and the Crown and Senate rarely oppose its initiatives.Judicial BranchThe judicial branch of Canadian government consists of various levels of courts, the highest of which is the Supreme Court of Canada. Many courts have the authority to balance the legislative and executive branches through judicial review, and the striking-down of legislation. Justice in Canada is administered in the name of the Queen.The Government of Canada (note the capitalisation), on the other hand, refers to the executive branch alone. For example, when a member of the House of Commons asks questions "of the Government," they are asking a question of members of Cabinet as advisers in the exercise of executive powers.
