In fact, the US President is not directly elected by the US voters. The US voters choose, often indirectly, the members of the Electoral College, who in turn choose the President. On more than one occasion, this has resulted in a President who received fewer votes than did his opponent.

In Canada, with a parliamentary form of government, the voters elect a parliament rather than a government. The government is then usually formed by the leader of the political party that elected the largest number of members to the House of Commons.
