In the three territories, who represents the federal government and plays a ceremonial role?

the Governor General
the Premier
the Commissioner
the Prime Minister

The correct answer is: the Commissioner

The other options, A, B, and D, are incorrect because they are roles at the federal or territorial level that hold more political power and responsibilities. The Governor General is the representative of the British monarch and is responsible for giving Royal Assent to legislation. The Premier is the head of government in a territory, similar to the role of a provincial premier in Canada. The Prime Minister is the leader of the federal government and is responsible for making major decisions and leading the country. In contrast, the Commissioner is a representative of the federal government who has a more ceremonial role and acts as a link between the federal government and the territories, rather than having significant political power. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
