In the Canadian Parliamentary Democracy system....the leader of the Party that has the most seats ...ie...members elected....becomes the Prime Minister.  This includes coalitions...

Little regard is paid to the real campaigns that matter...by the press.....it is so much easier to follow the Leaders.....and infer ...day by day ....that the election is about the Leaders......
USA has far too much money involved in the electoral process......Koch brothers 'donate' over a billion dollars in Presidential elections......Israel ..and those who support what Israel does......donate much the same amount 
No........we need to keep votes by individuals ...legally cast...as the way to elect our governments......not the ability to raise massive money........but the riding by riding efforts to be elected
