Do we honestly want to drag people's asses to the polls every 4 years to elect a president who would essentially be doing the same work as the GG, but now it's a political position? Or do we make Stephen Harper King, and his descendants heirs to the Canadian throne? Where do we put the throne? Regina?

I gave ideas that seems to be ignored in this thread.
Not sure if my ideas are that stupid or just missed?
Basically two options- a council from the supreme court with ceremony duties (are they needed???) going to the chief justice but any choices of power going to the court or ...
The Canadian Senate! And in this case, I like they aren't elected and appointments can't be removed by the next PM. I still can't believe I am now advocated for keeping our unelected senate, but I think its needed if they were granted this power given the American example with Trump. The ceremony duties (if they indeed needed) could be someone the Senate elects.
