As a result of the sudden political emergence of Arnold Schwarzenegger, high levels of immigration, and increased international adoptions, interest grew during the early twenty-first century in repealing the Constitution's restriction on presidential eligibility to natural-born citizens. A combination of academics, media outlets, a grassroots lobbying organization, and finally several members of Congress combined to push forward this constitutional revision to the presidency.

The enormous difficulty of amending the Constitution rendered this sensible proposal an exercise largely in symbolic politics.

Fluent in five languages French, English, Italian, Spanish and Haitian Creole Michaëlle Jean is the first black Governor General of Canada. As Governor General, she holds reserve powers which are constitutional conventions, although these are not spelled out in the constitution. The governor general typically exercises these powers, such as summoning Parliament, on ministerial advice, but retains special authority in exceptional circumstances, when she may appoint or dismiss a prime minister or dissolve Parliament. She is entitled to be styled Her Excellency while in office, and The Right Honourable for life; given current practice, she will be sworn in to the Queen's Privy Council for Canada after her term as the Queen's representative has ended.
