What sort of an answer is that?

The Governor General is a representative of the Queen, without a Queen there is no Governor General. It wasn't the GG who made the decision as he/she has no entitlement to make that decision on his/her own. Even if the opposition blocks "Supply" it must be the Constitutional Monarch ie Lizzy who makes the decision to force a disolution of parliment. Its the GG job to proceed with Lizzy's decision.
