    Canada at least has a “Governor-General” who is appointed by the British monarch.

    Edit: like several other commonwealth states, Canada is a completely separate country from the United Kingdom. It just happens, by law, that King Charles III is the king of all of them.

        Look, when the King of Canada, or his Governor General, perform official acts for Canada, they use the Great Seal of Canada, not the Great Seal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It’s totally different, I promise.
