No. Congress, meaning members of the Senate and House of Representatives, are elected by the voters of each state for fixed, but renewable, terms of office. The entire House of Representatives is up for election every two years; the Senators are elected every six years, on a staggered schedule. The US Supreme Court plays no role in this process.
They must be appointed by the President, and then accepted by the Senate and House.
Justices of the Supreme Court of Canada, pursuant to section 9(2) of the Supreme Court Act, are appointed until they reach the age of seventy-five. A justice of the Supreme Court may also be removed by the Governor General for misconduct, upon resolutions of both the appointed Senate and the elected House of Commons.
