Lieutenant Governor

Constitutional Monarchy

Canada’s system of government is a constitutional monarchy, which means that an unelected monarch functions as head of state within the limits of a constitution.

Constitutional monarchs do not rule directly but perform constitutional, ceremonial and representational duties.

In Canada the monarch is the head of state

and the Prime Minister is the head of government and both function within the Constitution.

The Crown

In Canada’s constitutional monarchy the Crown has certain ceremonial and constitutional responsibilities.

The Crown is the sovereign authority and an integral part of the legislative, executive and judicial powers that govern the country. Though the Crown is the source of these powers, elected federal and provincial governments exercise them.

As head of state the monarch is above politics, unlike the head of government.

In theory the Crown and its vice-regal representatives in Canada, known as the Governor General and Lieutenant Governors, can reject the advice, decisions and actions of parliament or ministers, but this rarely happens.

Almost invariably, the Crown follows the government’s advice as it represents the will of the people.

Lieutenant Governor

The Lieutenant Governor represents the monarch as the official head of state in Alberta. The Premier as head of government along with the cabinet, or Executive Council, governs in the monarch’s name.

The Lieutenant Governor performs constitutional, ceremonial and social duties.

In terms of specific roles, the Lieutenant Governor issues the Royal Proclamation that calls the Legislative Assembly into session; delivers the Speech from the Throne the opening of each session of a Legislature; grants royal assent to Bills that have passed third reading in the Assembly; approves cabinet orders (orders in council); prorogues, a session of the Legislature; dissolves the Legislature when an election is called and ensures that the province always has a Premier who has the confidence of the majority of the elected Members of the Assembly.

The Prime Minister appoints the Lieutenant Governor, usually for a five-year term.

The King of Canada, His Majesty King Charles III, is the official Head of State and is represented in New Brunswick by the Lieutenant-Governor. Therefore, the Lieutenant-Governor is the nominal Head of State the provincial level, empowered with the responsibility of representing the King in the province. However, the real power of governing resides with the Premier and the Executive Council (elected members appointed as Ministers of the Crown by the Lieutenant-Governor on the recommendation of the Premier).

The Lieutenant-Governor of New Brunswick is appointed by the Governor General-in-Council on the recommendation of the Prime Minister of Canada. The document of appointment is signed by the Governor General. The appointment, by tradition, is usually for a period of not less than five years and carries the title of "The Honourable" for life. In conversation and correspondence the Lieutenant-Governor is addressed as "Your Honour", as is his or her spouse.

The Lieutenant-Governor serves in a dual capacity: first as representative of the King for all purposes of the provincial government; and secondly, as a federal officer in discharging certain functions on behalf of the federal government.

The Lieutenant-Governor opens, prorogues and dissolves the Legislative Assembly. The Lieutenant-Governor is responsible for swearing-in the Premier and Cabinet Ministers and must ensure that a government is in office all times. The Chief Justice of New Brunswick, as Administrator, acts for the Lieutenant-Governor during his/her absence, illness or other inability. One or the other must be in the province all times.

The Lieutenant-Governor gives Royal Assent to all Bills passed by the Legislature before they become law, and, as well, signs them and other official documents such as proclamations, and appointments of persons to government posts including deputy ministers, provincial judges, members of boards, agencies and commissions, crown attorneys, and justices of the peace. The Lieutenant-Governor also signs a number of other official government documents, including land patents, leases, and appointments of notaries public and commissioners for taking affidavits.

A major responsibility of the Lieutenant-Governor is to deliver the Speech from the Throne the formal Opening of a new Session of the Legislative Assembly. This speech outlines proposed legislation, programs, and possible initiatives of the government for that Session.

In addition to those formal duties, the Lieutenant-Governor also engages in a large number of discretionary but traditional activities, such as lending patronage to not-for-profit organizations which are dedicated to improving the quality of life in the community. The Lieutenant-Governor sponsors awards, presents citations, and participates in investitures, dedications and other major events celebrating the achievements of the people of New Brunswick; writes messages of greeting, congratulations and condolence; hosts receptions, luncheons and dinners for guests of various organizations and professions; receives members of the Royal Family, heads of state, ambassadors, and other representatives of foreign countries, as well as people from all walks of life. During the course of the year, the Lieutenant-Governor attends hundreds of public events in support of community initiatives across the province.
