An acid will turn litmus paper red and a base will turn litmus paper what color? Way back when I was in high school (3000 BC) acid turned litmus paper pink and a base turned it blue. Edit
The Queen or sovereign is the head of state in Canada. The Governor General of Canada represents the sovereign, and most of the powers and authority of the sovereign have been delegated to the Governor General. The role of the Canadian Governor General is mostly symbolic and ceremonial.
Most of the Queen's executive functions are exercised by the Governor General, on the advice of the Queen's Privy Council for Canada. By convention, only privy counsellors who are ministers--and are therefore responsible to the elected House of Commons--may advise the Governor General.
