Everyone does NOT have to vote. The individual has the choice, vote or don't vote. Besides, you don't vote for a Prime Minister. You vote for a political party. The party of your choice. The leader of the party which wins (the one which gets most votes) the election will become Prime Minister. If you didn't give the population the choice every few years to keep or dismiss the party in power then what you would have would be a Dictatorship or a 1 party state, which amounts to the same thing. It's called democracy.
He is elected by his party to be their leader. Then you vote for parties themselves in elections. So i would go to an election, and vote for the NDP in my riding (area). If the NDP won the riding, they are the new representative. The party with the most representatives' leader becomes prime minister.
A motion of non-confidence does not "vote out" the prime minister, it only requires that the prime minister either resign (in which case a new prime minister would be summoned immediately by the Governor General of Canada), or seek the dissolution of Parliament (in which case the prime minister would continue at least until the results of the subsequent general election).
In Australia No one knows who you have voted for, because voting is done by secret ballot. and your privacy while voting is enforced by law. Any one that chooses can vote for whoever the want to in Australia. Australians don't vote for a prime minister, they vote for a representative to represent their area in the lower house and for a representative to sit in the senate to safe guard the interest of their state. the prime minister is voted into the position by the representatives of the lower house. So if after an election there are not enough votes in the lover house to reinstall the prime minister then a new prime minister is voted for. this is usually done with the backing of the victorious political party.
