  • To me, David Johnston gave the game away when he raised his clenched hands above his head in the "WE WON!" victory salute when swearing in Harper's new and enlarged Cabinet.

    An unforgivable display of partisan politics. Reader's Digest verifies that image by declaring Johnston to be like Samuel de Champlain, Canada's first governor, able to "dream big, envisioning a 'grand design' for North America.

    The Crown and her representatives must be strictly non-political. Johnston clearly isn't.

  • i think people dont care cause its a pointless position. its only real applicaiton is to suck up to the queen

  • I had the misfortune of knowing David Johnston at University of Waterloo. When David Johnston was appointed there, I thought he'd be good, but I was extremely wrong. I believe David Johnston was the worst university president imaginable. David Johnston will be a horrible governor general & is the last person who should have been appointed to this position. All Canadians should be extremely ashamed to have David Johnston as governor general.

  • Not much of a crowd '~'. I mean, Ottawa is a nearly dead city, but come on, this is the installation of the Governor General fer cryin' out loud! Just goes to show our general apathy...

  • You make an excellent point.

    Most likely if Canadians have the option of selecting between multiple candidates for the position of G.G in a free open and democratic election, there would have been more excitment for his installation.

    All the pomp and ceremony and money for a few dozen people.
