Appointment
A person is not appointed as a Registrar General, in particular — rather, a person becomes the Registrar General by virtue of being appointed as the Minister of Industry, a Cabinet office. Therefore, by proxy, the Registrar General is appointed by the Governor General, on the advice of the Prime Minister. The Registrar General serves until such time as he or she is replaced.
The current Minister of Industry and Registrar General, Christian Paradis, was sworn in on May 18, 2011
