Create logical story:
GoI 1935 brought in 'Federal Scheme'. Which elements will make a strong federation?

Impose Emergency, if things go down south!โŒ

- President as executive head
- Vice President as RS Chair
- President Impeachment and Judges Removal
- Supreme Court, Judicial Review and Independence of Judiciary
- Written Const. + FRs (4/17)

Use some contextual learning:
POTUS and VP Harris as Senate head are easy to remember. Think of POTUS Trump's impeachment and link it with judiciary (removal + independence)
Easy to correlate and keep in mind! :D

As a former colony itself, Canada needs 'advices' and 'residuary powers'.
In this 'federal system', let the 'governor appointement' be done for the provinces/states
