The Attorney General of Canada provides legal advice to the heads of the Government departments. Further, the Attorney General carries out all litigation for or against the Crown or any department of the Government of Canada. Many federal statutes give the Attorney General additional powers and duties relating to prosecutions. These are conferred both directly on the Attorney General personally, and indirectly on the Attorney General through the many responsibilities placed on the "prosecutor" in the Criminal Code. 3, record 5, English, - Attorney%20General%20of%20Canada

Le procureur général du Canada fournit des conseils juridiques aux administrateurs des ministères fédéraux.
