I agree. I wonder if she felt pressured into it given the Conservatives' suspicions of her left-leaning/separatist politics, and the fear that standing firm against the prorogation would give them fuel to voice those suspicions more loudly? I hope not.

It was a difficult position for her to be in, but this decision sets a bad precedent. Now anytime a prime minister is in danger of a vote of non-confidence he can just say, "Please, Mme Governor-General, may I have a prorogation?" Way to dodge the will of Parliament, there.
