I think early in your question you really hit the dilemma on the head, and that's the idea that Parliament empowers the Governor in Council to act in a certain way because it's recognized that that is the most efficient way to implement social programs or the will of Parliament. To the extent that Parliament does have a role to play, I think the efficiency of the processes is one of the most important considerations. For example, if a process were to be designed to play a supervisory role in the appointment and removal process, if procedures were established to that end, my advice would be to design them in such a way that efficiency concerns are paramount.
