Under the Canadian constitution, the government is the Queen, advised by her Ministers, supported by the civil service.
The government is limited in its powers by Parliament and the judiciary -- the government cannot enact new laws or appropriate funds without Parliamentary approval -- but the government is nonetheless controlled by a small number of people.
