Abolish the position. Stop wasting our money on a person who effectively does nothing in the lap of luxury to maintain colonial nostalgia.
@Linda Lee Read the Constitution.
@Bill Murrey Read a book on Canadian history.
@Justin Merpaw Why? Read how the legal system works and wonderful thing called crown prerogative.
We need an official spot we can put the rich and corrupt in. Otherwise they’ll start pulling a stunt like Trudeau with bought elections
100%
Time for a Republic.
No thanks. I want the PMO to have a lot less power, not a lot more. An unqualified bully in a ceremonial position is bad enough, but we’ve seen recently what an unqualified bully in a presidential position can do to a country.
@David Bennett it would have less power with an elected President with the power then being divided since the President would be elected
@Baby Ohana What power do you think the Governor General has?
@David Bennett an elected president would be given much more power because the post would be an elected one this less ceremonial
Appoint a constitutional lawyer of impeccable reputation.
sus venting or the other one
Well said!
What a monster.
A horrible woman, jail her and whomever hired her.
There is no denying that Payette was a bad appointment now. Don’t think that it’ll amount to anything. Trudeau’s government has survived worst.
Sounds like she has a case of the Karen’s
Why is it so hard for them to hire an emotionally intelligent individual???? She does not deserve to be called a *leader*
Because it’s a monarchy and not an elected position. There is 0 democratic process
she went through a vetting process call “you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours”
so who’s taking her role?

A Canadian “Karen”. Accountability is going to be important once more.
