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.

Is Canada a good example of a democratic nation?

Not really. Canada is an empire of almost 10 million sq/km that does allow people to vote but the power of that vote depends on who are voting and where they are voting., A vote in one area, such as PEI carries much more weight than a vote in any Western Canadian riding. More Canadians live in Ontario and West of Ontario than live in Ontario and East of Ontario but Canada spends most of it's money in the East, has most of the Federal Government departments located in the East, most government services are located in the East, and most of the political power is in the East. Canada is a poor example of what democracy is suppose to be about.
