Задание 1.

The Canadian political system was first drafted by the ”Fathers of Confederation” at the Quebec conference of 1864.
This became law when the constitution act was passed in 1867. This act gave the formal executive authority to Queen Victoria (Queen of Great Britain) which made Canada a sovereign democracy. The Canadian political system is therefore based on the British system.
Now Canada is an independent Federal state with the Queen still being the head of state. Her powers are extremely limited however, as the Parliament passes the laws. The Gove
or General of Canada is the Queen’s representative in Canada and carries out all the Royal obligations when the Queen is not in Canada. The Gove
or is always a Canadian chosen by the Queen on the advice of the Prime Minister. The length of office is normally five years for the Gove
or General. The Houses of Parliament (housing the Federal Gove
ment) are located in Canada’s capital city, Ottawa. There are three main sections to the Canadian Parliament: the Queen as the Head of state; the Senate (appointed on the Prime Minister’s recommendations) and the elected House of Commons.
