The Governor General of Canada serves as the representative of the Monarch, currently the King, in Canada. Appointed by the Monarch on the advice of the Prime Minister, the Governor General performs various ceremonial duties and functions within the parliamentary system, including the formal opening of Parliament and granting Royal Assent to legislation. This role helps bridge the constitutional monarchy with Canada’s democratic government, ensuring that the country's parliamentary system operates smoothly. The Governor General also plays a vital role in representing Canada internationally and upholding Canadian traditions and values.
