1. President does NOT report to chancellor. It is similar to the relationship between Queen and PM as you mentioned. PM does NOT report to Queen! PM is elected independently without consideration of Queen's opinion and PM's daily job has nothing to do with Queen's input either.

2. The discussion starts with the Chinese translation of chancellor and is about the accuracy of the translation. I am confused when you say you care less.

3. After searching UofT's site, I find the role of chancellor has actually the focus on improving the connections for alumni worldwide. I don't mean this role is unimportant by all means, but it is definitely not a 校长 in Chinese language. Following is the paragraph describing the duty of a chancellor at UofT:
"Elected by the alumni's College of Electors for a three-year term, the chancellor is the ceremonial head of the university, presiding at convocations, conferring all university degrees and acting as ambassador to the more than 365,000 alumni worldwide. The chancellor serves as the university's senior volunteer and plays an essential ambassadorial role in advancing the university's interests within the local, provincial, national and international arenas, roles for which Poy is eminently qualified."

However, you may still be correct in translation, if we consider our tradition of translation. I found 杨福家 also claimed he was the 诺丁汉大学校长.
