The favourable poll came despite Harry never having expressed any interest in the post.

61% of the Canadians polled said they would support having Harry replace current governor general Julie Payette when her term expires, the National Post said. Payette, a former astronaut, was named to the post in 2017. The governor general, who resides in Ottawa, generally serves for five years. Britain’s royal family has been in crisis since Harry and Meghan’s bombshell announcement that they were quitting their frontline duties.
