By the arrangements of the Canadian federation, Canada's monarchy operates in New Brunswick as the core of the province's Westminster-style parliamentary democracy.[1] As such, the Crown within New Brunswick's jurisdiction is referred to as the Crown in Right of New Brunswick (French: couronne du chef du Nouveau-Brunswick),[2] His Majesty in Right of New Brunswick (French: Sa Majesté du chef du Nouveau-Brunswick),[3] or the King in Right of New Brunswick (French: le roi du chef du Nouveau-Brunswick).[4] The Constitution Act, 1867, however, leaves many royal duties in the province specifically assigned to the sovereign's viceroy, the lieutenant governor of New Brunswick,[1] whose direct participation in governance is limited by the conventional stipulations of constitutional monarchy.[5]
