Government in Canada
Canada is a constitutional monarchy. We have a monarch, Queen
Elizabeth of England, as our Head of State. The Queen appoints a
representative, the Governor General, who acts as Head of State. It is the
Governor General and not the Queen who has a role in the Canadian government.
The Constitution limits the powers of the Queen and the Governor General. In
fact, they have very little power. Their role is mostly symbolic and
ceremonial.
Canada has three levels of
government, federal, provincial and municipal. Municipal government is
government at the town and city level. Next, each of the ten provinces has its
own provincial government. The three territories, Yukon, Nunavut and the Northwest
Territories, have a territorial government. And last, there is one federal
government for the country. The federal government meets at Parliament
Hill in Ottawa. Ottawa is the capital of Canada.
