It seems that former McGill University president David Johnston has sworn in as Canada's new Governor General. Even though I bear something of a strong antipathy towards McGill administration, somehow this individual's past association with McGill has encouraged me to listen up whenever I hear his name. As much as I might not like to admit it, my association with McGill has likely left some kind of mark on me, even if I don't yet know the precise nature of that mark.
All of this being said, I think that Johnston's back ground and experience will serve him well in his new role. Furthermore, I am inclined to go so far as to think that he will actually do a very good job. Hopefully he will bring to the job an understanding of the constitution and operations of government that has not always been present among our Governors General.
