Practice question

A province’s old seal remains in official use when a new administration takes office. The governor claims Section 22(b) automatically invalidates every predecessor seal and requires a new one after each election. No independent legal requirement exists. Which is correct?
  1. Every election abolishes the seal automatically.
  2. Section 22(b) allows continued use, modification or change; it does not mandate replacement after each election.
  3. Only a private donor may choose the official seal.
  4. A continuing seal makes the new governor unelected.
  5. An old seal necessarily converts the province to a private company.
