— Correct me if I'm wrong, but did I not sign a bill of yours barely 16 months ago directing that elections be held on a fixed schedule? Third Monday in October, as I recall. In the fourth year after the last election. What are you doing asking me to dissolve Parliament a year ahead of time?

— Yes, but if you remember, it also said that nothing in it affected the power to dissolve Parliament "at the Governor General's discretion." Meaning at my discretion. If it please Your Excellency.
I read that article as well...I found it very entertaining and interesting!
