The Governor General dissolves parliament, not the Queen. That said the Governor General's involvement is pretty much ceremonial and the real decision gets made by the Prime Minister and the Canadian people.

And you're right - we are controlled by the same people. The Canadian people control their government and if they don't do as we desire we replace them with someone else.

How many times have Americans had the balls to force their leader out when they weren't happy in the middle of a term? Once?
