I am a republican (in the anti-monarchist sense, not the American sense) so if we want to end that institution and get rid of the office of governor general entirely I'm on board with that. But that's not what's happening here. Should the organizations be successful in their case, the office of governor general will continue. It will simply force the first Indigenous holder of it out because she doesn't speak a settler language.
I can't begin to describe how bad that will look from a country that is supposedly pursuing reconciliation with it's colonial history.
