Ottawa does not have a lieutenant governor. Canada does, her title is Governor General and her name is Michaelle Jean. She is the Queen's representative.
Constitutionally, the Governor General is the chief executive officer and commander-in-chief of Canada, and carries out the government of Canada in the Queen's name. The Governor General's role is to carry out the functions of goverment. Actual decision making and debate is left to politicians, but the Governor General does have to grant assent to all legislation issued by Parliament or the Cabinet, call elections and referendums, appoint officials such as ministers and senators, conduct diplomatic relations with other governments, ect... Generally, the Governor General performs these duties on the advice of the Prime Minister, but the Governor General can exercise discretion in some cases, and always has the right to be informed and give advice to the ministers. The Governor General represents the Queen in Canada, and most of the Queen's authority has been delegated to the Governor General as her personal representative. The Governor General plays an important role in granting Canadian honours, and participates in civilian and military ceremonies throughout the country and abroad. The Governor General also represents Canada internationally by conducting state visits.
The Governor General is the representative of The Queen for all Canada. The GG is presently Michaelle Jean.
The term is Governor General. And the current GG is Michaëlle Jean. (Please note, this is the correct spelling of her name) Lieutenant Governors are found at the Provincial level.
Because Canada is a member of the commonwealth, Queen Elizabeth II is our regent. The Queen's representative in Canada is called the Governor-General.
The Right Honourable The Lord Lisgar Bt., G.C.B., G.C.M.G., P.C., was the second Governor General of Canada.
