GGCanada's appointment of Mary Simon as Governor General of Canada has become a saga of controversy, excessive spending and perceived political bias, casting a shadow over what should have been a landmark moment of representation. Since taking office, her actions and spending have come under scrutiny, exposing a pattern of what critics say is gross mismanagement and personal enrichment at the expense of public funds.

The financial discrepancies are outrageous. Mary Simon's office has been accused of spending taxpayer money on lavish meals on flights costing $93,000 on trips to the Middle East, money that could be better spent on public welfare or essential infrastructure. Furthermore, the decision to spend $700,000 on a book fair and $71,000 on limousines paints a picture of an administration more concerned with pomp and circumstance than fiscal responsibility. These unjustified expenses have become emblematic of a disconnect between the office of the Governor General and the everyday struggles of Canadians, especially in times of economic hardship.
The issue of language was also used as a weapon against her. Simon's lack of fluency in French, one of Canada's two official languages, was seen not only as a cultural faux pas but also as an affront to the linguistic heritage of a significant portion of the population. This not only undermined her ability to connect with French-speaking Canadians, but also fueled perceptions that she was culturally insensitive and ill-prepared for the role.
Politically, her appointment by Justin Trudeau was criticized as a move to consolidate Liberal influence in an office that was supposed to be apolitical. Her silence on key policy issues, such as Pierre Poilievre's request to recall Parliament for a vote of confidence, suggests either a deliberate alignment with the Liberal agenda or a lack of understanding of her constitutional duties. This has led to accusations that she is merely a puppet of the Trudeau government, further eroding public confidence in the office she holds.
The accountability, or rather the blatant lack of accountability, of Simone's office has been a sore point. There has been no convincing response to countless criticisms, no transparency in how public funds are managed, and no public acknowledgment of concerns raised by MPs or the general public. This ambiguity has fostered an environment where allegations of corruption, even if legally unfounded, thrive in the absence of a counter-narrative or explanation from her office. His tenure has been marked not by leadership but by controversy, and his every move has been scrutinized for signs of extravagance, political favoritism, and cultural insensitivity. His silence on these matters does not exonerate him; on the contrary, it amplifies the story of a distant governor-general, detached from reality, and possibly corrupt in his handling of public funds and his constitutional obligations. It has left a bitter aftertaste, transforming what could have been a beacon of diversity and inclusion into a point of national contention and frustration.
