So... whaddaya think would happen...

If Governor-General Michaƫlle Jean suddenly received 50 thousand pissed off emails?
-- OTTAWA, TORONTO -- The Governor-General has the power to veto appointments to the Order of Canada, but it would have been highly unusual for her to use it to block abortion-rights activist Henry Morgentaler from receiving the honour, according to those familiar with the process.
On another speculative note... does anybody know what religion the GG and her family practice?

Not RC by any chance?

Wouldn't that be interesting.
