How is the England's prime minister elected?
I'm not sure about England, but I do know about Canada, and I would imagine they are the same, but I am not sure: Each party has a leader. I think that leader is elected among the members of the party, but he/she might just be decided. But anyway, they hold elections for Members of Parliament and the party with the most MPs forms a government with their leader as the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister must then pass a vote of confidence, if he doesn't, elections are held again and a new PM is put in.
What political party is the elected government of Canada?
The current governing party in Canada (the party with the majority of elected Members of Parliament) are the Conservative Party of Canada, and the Official Opposition (party with the second-most elected MPs, referred to as "shadow cabinet" in England) are the New Democratic Party. Note: Canada's Conservatives should not be likened to America's Conservatives (Republicans.) The Conservative Party of Canada is a very centrist and pragmatic federalist party. (The Repiblicans are batshit crazy.)

How is the British executive selected?
The Executive branch of the British government comprises of the Prime Minister, Cabinet Ministers and senior civil servants. The Prime Minister is indirectly elected by the electorate, through voting for MPs in a constituency. The leader of the party with the highest number of MPs is (usually) appointed the Prime Minister by the Queen. The cabinet ministers can be members of the House of Commons (MPs) or House of Lords (Peers). They are selected at the discretion of the Prime Minister, and can be appointed and dismissed at his/her will.
When a governing provincial party in Canada chooses a new leader must an election be called?
No. In the parliamentary system, we elect MPs and not leaders. For the duration of their terms, MPs a responsible for deciding who should form the government. This is beneficial because it means that we can become familiar with a new leader either as premier or opposition leader before we have to decide whether we need a change in government. It would be detrimental for democracy in a parliamentary system for a major party to go into an election with an unknown leader.

Why is the Bloc Québécois allowed in Ottawa when that party is not represented in other provinces in Canada?
There is no reason to bar duly-elected MPs from Parliament just because the party to which they belong doesn't run candidates outside of Quebec. Remember that parties don't run in elections, members do, and you don't even have to be a member of a party in order to get elected.
How does Canada vote for government?
Canada elects individual Members of Parliament (MPs) to sit in the House of Commons via a First Past the Post election in each riding. The group of MPs (usually determined by political party affiliation) most likely to be able to pass legislation through the House of Commons forms the government, and its leader becomes the Prime Minister and selects a Cabinet from among the government MPs.
