Canada’s parliamentary system is open and democratic. It offers the opportunity for people to give their input and it is designed to make sure proposals for laws are carefully considered. Canada’s Parliament consists of three parts: the Queen, the Senate and the House of Commons. They work together to make the laws for our country. The executive branch consists of the Queen, the Prime Minister and Cabinet, and the departments of government. They implement the laws. The legislative branch makes the laws, and the judicial branch — which is not part of Parliament — interprets them.

This means that the laws governing Canada recognize the Queen as the formal Head of State. All federal laws are made in the Queen’s name. She also performs many important ceremonial duties when visiting Canada. THE GOVERNOR GENERAL The Governor General is the Queen’s representative in Canada. The Queen appoints the Governor General on the advice of the Prime Minister. The Governor General usually serves for À ve years. One of the most important roles of the Governor General is to ensure that Canada always has a Prime Minister. For example, if no party had a clear majority after an election, or if the Prime Minister were to 7KH*RYHUQRU*HQHUDO¶V die in ofÀ ce, the Governor General would have to choose a 6WDQGDUGLVDV\PERORIWKH &URZQ¶VVRYHUHLJQW\LQ&DQDGD successor.

The duties of the Governor General include: summoning, opening and ending sessions of Parliament; reading the Speech from the Throne; giving Royal Assent to bills; signing state documents; and dissolving Parliament for an election.

  • Mike Duffy: Allan Rock's Cloud of Bad Luck
    CTV.ca - Canadian Television's Web Destination 12/8/02 6:44 PM Mike Duffy: Allan Rock's cloud of bad luck By Mike Duffy, Ottawa Editor, CTV Newsnet Updated: Sun. Dec. 8 2002 2:50 PM ET Remember the Li'l Abner comic strip character Joe Btfsplk, the world's worst jinx? He could never get rid of the rain cloud that followed him everywhere. Some people here in Ottawa believe that description fits Industry Minister and putative Liberal leadership candidate Allan Rock. On the surface, Rock appears to have it all: Handsome, bilingual, an accomplished big-time lawyer who left the glitz of Toronto to come to Ottawa to make a difference in our public life! How many leadership candidates can boast of having hung out in college with Beatle John Lennon? But beneath the charisma, some Liberals say there is a man with the Midas touch, but in reverse. Too many of Rock's political projects have gone sour. When he was minister of health, there was the fight over compensation for victims of tainted blood. Jean Chretien and Paul Martin were running the government, but it was Allan Rock who carried the can. During the anthrax scare Rock tried to buy a generic form of CIPRO even though Bayer held the patent. In the justice portfolio, he was singled out for having launched the Airbus investigation which ended with Brian Mulroney being paid $2 million in legal fees. And now he's taking a share of the blame for the massive overspending on gun registration. Justice Minister Martin Cauchon and his predecessor Anne MacLellan, are only too happy with sit back and allow Rock to carry the can for this billion dollar boondoggle.

Effects of Scandals on Voter Turnout in Canada by Terrance Kutney Although there has been much research done regarding the effects of political scandals on the voting share won by a political party, little research has been done on the effect of political scandals on voter turnout. This is especially true in the context of Canadian politics. This work analyzes the effect of the Canadian sponsorship scandal on voter turnout, primarily using the 2004 and 2006 iterations of the Canadian Election Study. It finds a positive rela- tionship between anger about the sponsorship scandal and the probability of voting. Closer analysis of the 2004 election shows that voters who were angry about the sponsorship scandal increased their political activity leading up to the election and were thus more likely to vote. Introduction On 19 May 2013, Nigel Wright resigned his position as chief of staff to the Cana- dian Prime Minister, having been implicated in what is now known as the Canadian Senate Expenses Scandal.
