Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Governors were promoting the interests of British king. The organization of power in the colonies was made with the desire to strengthen the position of the executive, the governor and thereby ensure the influence of the king in the colonies. The governor of the colony has broad powers: except that he has the right to appoint members of the colonial council and is the only one authorized to convene the assembly. Has an absolute veto on the decisions of the Assembly, may suspend the sessions or dissolve the Assembly. In reality - they are governors

difficult to deal with assemblies.
