David Johnston is the Governor General of Canada because the Queen appointed him on the recommendation of Prime Minister Stephen Harper. The Prime Minster recommended him based on his nomination by a committee that was tasked with deciding who should be the Governor General of Canada. David Johnston was chosen due to his non-partisan reputation, his experience in the academic and corporate worlds, and his dedication to public service.
