The provincial government (as per the Constitution Act, 1867) is comprised of the Lieutenant Governor of each province, acting on the advice of the Executive Council (made up of the provincial premier and ministers). The Lieutenant Governor is appointed by the Governor General of Canada on the advice of the prime minister, and the Executive Council is made up of persons appointed by the respective Lieutenant Governor. The Lieutenant Governor, acting on the advice of these ministers, is referred to as the Lieutenant Governor-in-Council and is the primary instrument of government of a province.
It is expected that all members of the Executive Council are also members of the Legislative Assembly. The Lieutenant Governor appoints a premier who is best able to command the support of a majority of members of the Legislative Assembly. When there is no clear majority, and the previous premier has resigned or has been dismissed, the Lieutenant Governor has a greater degree of discretion on who may become the head of Government.

∙ 13y agoEach of the ten Canadian provinces has a provincial government. The Lieutenant Governor of each province is summoned by the Governor General to represent the Queen, and the Lieutenant Governor selects someone supported by a majority of members of the Legislative Assembly to be the premier (the head of Government) of the province. The premier, and other executive counsellors, advise the Lieutenant Governor on the use of executive powers, and this is referred to as the Lieutenant Governor-in-Council and forms the executive branch of each provincial government.
