The Great Seal of Canada is one of the oldest and most venerated instruments of our government. Since the earliest days of [the] nation, Canada's most important documents have been made official through its imprint. The Great Seal signifies the power and authority of the Crown flowing from the sovereign to [the] parliamentary government. The Great Seal has both ceremonial and administrative purposes. Each time a new governor general is installed in Canada, he or she is solemnly charged with custody of the Seal as representative of the Crown. It is used on all state documents, such as Royal proclamations and commissions issued for the appointment of Cabinet ministers, lieutenant governors, senators and judges.  2, record 1, English, - Great%20Seal%20of%20Canada
