GOVERNMENT SCHOLARSHIPS FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS IN CANADA FOR 2023/2024 HOME SCHOLARSHIP

The Government of Canada Scholarships programme provides financial assistance to both international students studying in Canada and Canadian students studying abroad. The scholarships listed below are available to international students attending MITT.

Global Affairs Canada is in charge of the participation of Government of Canada Scholarships in major international scholarship programmes. The mission of the government is to promote intercultural understanding, develop global citizens, support leaders, and contribute to national development.

The government of Canada is the body in charge of Canada’s federal administration.

 

In a constitutional monarchy, the Crown is the sole agency, with distinct roles: the executive, as the Crown-in-Council; the legislature, as the Crown-in-Parliament; and the courts, as the Crown-on-the-Bench.

The Crown’s powers, however, are exercised by three institutions: the Privy Council (conventionally, the Cabinet), the Parliament of Canada, and the judiciary. The Government of Canada can refer to either the entire set of three institutions or, more specifically, the executive—ministers of the Crown (the Cabinet) and federal civil servants (whom the Cabinet directs)—that collectively brands itself as the Government of Canada, or more formally, Her Majesty’s Government.

In both senses, the current structure was established at Confederation through the Constitution Act of 1867—as a federal constitutional monarchy. The Canadian Crown is the most important.

The foundation of its Westminster-style parliamentary democracy.

 

The Crown is the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of the Canadian government. The monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, is the head of state and is personally represented by a governor-general (currently Mary Simon). A prime minister, “Justin Trudeau,” is the head of a government that the Crown invites to form a government after securing the House of Commons’ confidence, which is usually determined by the election of enough members of a single political party in a federal election to provide a majority of seats in Parliament, forming a governing party.

Other aspects of governance, however, are defined in the rest of the Canadian Constitution, which includes written statutes as well as court rulings and unwritten conventions developed over centuries.

 

Legitimately, the Queen’s Privy Council for Canada is the body that advises the sovereign or their representative on the exercise of executive power. A committee almost entirely executes this task within the Queen’s Privy Council, known as the Cabinet, which collectively sets the government’s policies and priorities for the country.

The Prime Minister presides over the Government of Canada, which is made up of Crown ministers. The members of the Cabinet are appointed by the sovereign on the advice of the prime minister and are traditionally drawn from the House of Commons or, less frequently, the Senate.

Furthermore, the government must maintain the House of Commons’ confidence during its term, and certain essential motions, such as the passage of the government’s budget, are considered confidence motions.
