The Prime Minister's position is known as a fused executive which means that he or she is responsible for and has the titular power of the executive branch of the government and the leader of the legislative branch. This makes the PM the most powerful person in the Government. They are in a position to not only develop, and pass legislation, but also to enforce and execute the legislation.

The Prime Minister becomes the embodiment of the direction which the country will go and how it will carry out the day to day affairs of governing the country and conducting foreign affairs with the world. In many cases the Prime Minister is how the world sees Canada and Canadians see themselves.
