In 2008, a public opinion survey showed that 51% of Canadians believed they voted to directly elect the prime minister.[14] In fact, the prime minister, along with the other ministers in Cabinet, is appointed by the governor general on behalf of the monarch.
And serves at the pleasure of the monarch. The monarch usually just goes along with the election to give the appearance of sovereignty.
But I have the distinct feeling that the US now owns Canada.
This will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Let me get this right.
A GG appointed by a PM will without letters patent represent the Crown and now apoint a PM.
Does anyone see the lie ?
