The Governor General of Canada is taking a tour of U.S. Midwest cities. Last night, he was in Detroit.
The Right Honorable David Johnston spoke to a group of dignitaries at the Detroit Institute of Arts.
The Governor General represents the Queen as Canada’s head of state. He’s also the Commander-in-Chief of the country’s armed forces.
He took a few minutes to speak with WDET’s Jerome Vaughn about his unique position and his reason for coming to Detroit.
