Who selects the Cabinet ministers?

The Governor General
The Prime Minister
The Sovereign
The House of Commons

The correct answer is: The Prime Minister

The Prime Minister is responsible for selecting Cabinet ministers in Canada. The Governor General, although technically the head of state, traditionally follows the advice of the Prime Minister in appointing Cabinet ministers. The Sovereign, also referred to as the Queen or King of Canada, is not directly involved in the selection of Cabinet ministers. While the House of Commons holds a significant role in the Canadian government, they do not have the authority to select Cabinet ministers. This responsibility falls solely on the shoulders of the Prime Minister.
