Independence? Canada hasn't got independence from British Crown as the Queen Elizabeth II is the head of state. This must be a joke or something. Canada is part of the British Commonwealth with Her Majesty's courts. When will Canada gains it's independence from British tyranny first?
A tyrant is a single ruler holding vast, if not absolute power through a state or in an organization. Even the Prime Minister can be fired from his job by Queen of England on a rainy little island across the ocean.

The Governor General of Canada is the Queen's representative.
The Governor General of Canada is the vice-regal representative in Canada of the Canadian monarch, who is the head of state. The monarch appoints the Governor General on the advice of the Canadian Prime Minister, after which the Governor General maintains direct contact with the monarch. As with other appointments, the incumbent is said to serve at Her Majesty's pleasure, but by convention usually serves for approximately five years.
He or she serves the primarily symbolic role as the Commander-in-Chief of the Canadian Forces. Symbolically, the Governor General fills this position, in the name of the Queen, as the allegiance of Armed Forces members is to the Canadian Crown, and not to the sitting, and transient, government. In practise, it is not clear whether the commanders of the Armed Forces could, in reality, turn to the Governor General if they thought that the orders they were receiving from the Prime Minister and Minister of National Defence were illegal or unethical, or whether the Governor General would be justified in issuing new orders directly. The Governor General is also the colonel of the regiment of Canada's three household regiments: the Governor General's Horse Guards, Governor General's Foot Guards and Canadian Grenadier Guards. This ceremonial position is directly under the position of colonel-in-chief, which is held by the Queen.

The British Crown in the City of London Corporation is a corporation controlled by the Bank of England. The Bank of England created the Bank of Canada to make sure Canada stays a British Crown colony forever; so think of Canada as a slave planation and social engineering subjects serving the needs of the British Crown in the City of London Corporation.
Canadians think they are an independent country but they are not, Canada is self-governing dominion of the British Commonwealth where the Queen is the head of state while Canada is and will be a British Crown Colony forever as the Bank of Canada (subject to the Bank of England and British Crown) controls the Canadian government.
Canadians are really the Queen's subjects all working on behalf in Her Majesty's Service. The Queen, Canadian government and Crown Corporations are all subject to the British Crown in the City of London Corporation.
