Opening of the Canadian parliament

The opening of the Canadian parliament is the commencement of a session of the Parliament of Canada following a general election. It involves summons from the governor general on behalf of the Queen of Canada and a ceremony based on the same in the United Kingdom, though less elaborate and now evolved to include uniquely Canadian elements.
