the pm is the political leader

2018-09-07 21:51:00 UTC  

Nah

2018-09-07 21:51:29 UTC  

PM is the guy that controls the civilians and Commons.

2018-09-07 21:51:29 UTC  

the queen is a celebratory leader with limited dictatorship like abilities

2018-09-07 21:51:45 UTC  

your talking about the prime minister right?

2018-09-07 21:52:09 UTC  

the prime minister has taken the place of the queen in the lives of uk citizens and the commonwealth

2018-09-07 21:52:09 UTC  

if he controls the citizens and gov, hes the political leader

2018-09-07 21:52:28 UTC  

not really

2018-09-07 21:52:46 UTC  

a single pm doesnt have executive power over all of the common wealth

2018-09-07 21:52:53 UTC  

maybe in the eyes of the uk

2018-09-07 21:52:55 UTC  

I think you mean monarchist powers.

2018-09-07 21:53:00 UTC  

but they still celebrate the queen

2018-09-07 21:53:11 UTC  

yeah, by queen I mean monarch

2018-09-07 21:53:19 UTC  

the crown

2018-09-07 21:53:28 UTC  

same thing

2018-09-07 21:53:32 UTC  

The Crown is Parliament

2018-09-07 21:53:37 UTC  

In Canada

2018-09-07 21:54:03 UTC  

Parliament gets its authority from the Queen.

2018-09-07 21:54:20 UTC  

And is thus referred to as the Crown.

2018-09-07 21:54:45 UTC  

ok, so in canada is the prime minister elected directly?

2018-09-07 21:55:00 UTC  

No

2018-09-07 21:55:17 UTC  

The PM is the leader of the party that is elected to office with the most seats.

2018-09-07 21:55:28 UTC  

And the Leader is elected by the members of the parties

2018-09-07 21:55:32 UTC  

is it like the uk where they are the head of the party?

2018-09-07 21:55:54 UTC  

so the pm is basically the head of parliament

2018-09-07 21:56:01 UTC  

Not always.

2018-09-07 21:56:18 UTC  

well not in a minority government, right?

2018-09-07 21:56:36 UTC  

As a Minority government can subvert his agenda and call non-confidence to give him the boot.

2018-09-07 21:57:23 UTC  

the pm represents the crown to the people generally speaking

2018-09-07 21:57:28 UTC  

The other parties can form a coalition and then call an election.

2018-09-07 21:57:45 UTC  

But yeah, the PM is the head of the party with the most seats.

2018-09-07 21:57:56 UTC  

And he can appoint people to offices.

2018-09-07 21:58:06 UTC  

so it is practically the same as the uk

2018-09-07 21:58:07 UTC  

As a majority he is defacto leader.

2018-09-07 21:58:56 UTC  

Our system is based on British Parliament.

2018-09-07 21:58:58 UTC  

Yes.

2018-09-07 21:59:09 UTC  

But the Queen holds more power here than there.

2018-09-07 22:00:29 UTC  

We have the Commons and the Senate.

2018-09-07 22:00:47 UTC  

The Senate is full of people appointed by PMs.

2018-09-07 22:00:54 UTC  

From the Commons.

2018-09-07 22:01:06 UTC  

And they never change until one resigns or dies.
