The politics of Canada Canada is a federal state with three level of government: federal, provincial, municipal. Each level has its own responsibility. The federal government is responsible for the matter relating to national and international concerns. The political system in Canada is democracy and constitutional monarchy. As we know, there are many parties across Canada, not like in China. In the House of Common,the party wins the most seat in election becomes the country's government,while the party wins the second largest number of seats in election is call the official Opposition, which only can oppose or try to improve government proposals. Therefore the leader of the party in power is the head of federal government. He or she is called prime minister, which is like in the UK. What is the responsibility of citizen about Canada' s politics? They over 18 years old can elect members of parliament that sit in the House of Commons, it means that the citizens has their right to elect the party in power but not prime minister, and election is the indirect way to elect prime minister. That's it, politics is a complicate topic,I will write more later, welcome to correct my article .^_^
