Worth noting is the extent of power held by the Canadian PM:

> As such, the prime minister, supported by the Office of the Prime Minister (PMO), controls the appointments of many key figures in Canada's system of governance, including the governor general, the Cabinet, justices of the Supreme Court, senators, heads of crown corporations, ambassadors to foreign countries, the provincial lieutenant governors, and approximately 3,100 other positions.

Chilling, isn't it? Perhaps this change in Turkey is an opportunity to engage in political change here in the Americas.
