	Governor General Cartoons
		Because the Governor General doesn't really have a political role, he or she is rarely in the public spotlight, and as a result cartoons of the GG are not very common.
		Historically, the Governor General was supposed to be the emissary of the British monarch to Canada.
		The Governor General can then accept his resignation and call new elections, or appoint a new Prime Minister, or refuse the resignation (the last two powers are never used, but remain part of the GG's "reserve" constitutional authority).

	The Governor General of Canada
		Today, the Governor General's main role is to represent the Queen, and generally perform the expected duties of a ceremonial Head of State.
		In practical terms the Governor General is a figurehead with almost zero political relevance in the actual governance of the country.
		As meaningless as the Governor General may seem to be, political pundits always point out that in huge political emergencies the Governor General could actually use her constitutional powers to provide political stability.

		Interviews were conducted in-person prior to the 1984 election, and in the post-election wave, half of the respondents were randomly assigned to be reinterviewed in person, and the other half to be reinterviewed by telephone using a shortened version of the questionnaire.

		Recently came the announcement of a new programme for a Governor General's History Medal for the year 2000, which seems aptly to raise the profile of an important area of our education system which many have felt has been ignored in recent years, to the cost of a sense of shared community and purpose.

		It is unfortunate that one has to read the Governor General's speeches on the internet, rather than hear them as part of a series of robust travels across the country, but this fact points out one of the troubling aspects of Mr.

	Pour un Québec lucide - A warning to the working class (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Jean Lesage’s election victory in 1960 after the death of Duplessis took the momentum away from the working class and placed it into the hands of Québec’s rising petit bourgeois.
		As the workers’ movement of the 1960s and early 1970s was the development on a higher level of the workers’ movement of the 1950s, so was the PQ victory a development on a higher level of the Quiet Revolution (or the Jean Lesage years).
		Until the General Strike of 1972 the CSN had characterized the PQ as “a professional and technocratic petite bourgeoise, whose ambition is to replace the Anglo-Canadian bourgeoisie in Québec (notably through state institution),” – which is exactly what happened.
