Who does the Prime Minister choose as ministers of the Crown?

Only their relatives
Mostly from among members of the House of Commons
Any citizen of Canada
Members of the opposition

The correct answer is: Mostly from among members of the House of Commons

The Prime Minister chooses ministers of the Crown from mostly among members of the House of Commons because they are elected representatives of the people and are typically the most experienced and knowledgeable about government operations. It would not make sense to choose only their relatives (option A) as that would not necessarily ensure the best leadership or representation. Choosing any citizen of Canada (option C) might result in inexperienced or unqualified individuals being placed in important government positions. Similarly, choosing members of the opposition (option D) would not align with the ideals of collaboration and cooperation within the government.
