True or False: The role of the Governor General in Canada is to lead the Senate debates.

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: False

This is incorrect because the role of the Governor General in Canada is to represent the British Monarch, serve as the formal head of state, and perform ceremonial duties such as appointing the Prime Minister and granting Royal Assent. The Governor General does not have a role in Senate debates, as this responsibility falls on the Speaker of the Senate.
