Isn't the Governor-General basically the British crown's representative in Canada?
It's the Queen of Canada she represents, as I understand it. The fact that the Queen of Canada and the Queen of England is the same person is a sort of historical artifact or accident.
how cool would it be if you guys threw some tea in a harbor
We're more likely to drink it, instead. Canadians aren't into precipitous acts of defiance.
