Is Canada a direct democrarcy?

No. Canada has a representative government. It does not have a direct democracy. It has a parliament that meets in Ottawa. (Every now and then a province threatens to ratify the constitution of the United States and pull out of Canada. That was allowed under the American Articles of Confederation and was never repealed by the Congress of the United States! The latest has been Alberta. Unlike all other provinces, Canada would not let it keep the taxes from its oil. Maybe some day a province will ratify it.)
