How Canada's Government Works - Long Video (YouTube)

The Levels of (Canadian) Government - (YouTube)

Canadian government system - Video (YouTube)

In Canada, there are 3 levels of government. Each level of government has different responsibilities.

Federal government (the Government of Canada) - Responsible for things that affect the whole country, such as citizenship and immigration, national defence and trade with other countries.
Provincial and territorial governments (for example, the Province of Ontario) - Responsible for things such as education, health care and highways.
Municipal (local) governments (e.g. cities, towns, and villages in Ontario) - Responsible for firefighting, city streets and other local matters. If there is no local government, the province provides services.

At the federal level, there are 3 parts of government, that generally take after the UK approach of government subdivision:

The House of Commons makes Canada's laws. Canadians elect representatives to the House of Commons. These representatives are called Members of Parliament (MPs) and usually belong to a political party. The political party that has the largest number of MPs forms the government, and its leader becomes prime minister.
The prime minister is the head of government in Canada. The Prime Minister chooses MPs to serve as ministers in the cabinet. There are ministers for citizenship and immigration, justice and other subjects. The cabinet makes important decisions about government policy.
The Senate reviews laws that are proposed by the House of Commons. Senators come from across Canada. The prime minister chooses the senators.

You can read the Guide to the Canadian House of Commons for more information.

At the provincial level:

The Lieutenant Governor represents the authirities.
The Legislative Assembly makes law. In Ontario, elected representatives are called Members of Provincial Parliament (MPPs).

The political party that has the largest number of MPPs forms the government, and its leader becomes Premier. The premier is the head of government in Ontario. The premier leads the government and chooses MPPs to serve as ministers in thecabinet. The cabinet sets government policy and introduces laws for the Legislative Assembly to consider.

At the municipal level:

The Province of Ontario defines the structure, finances, and management of the local governments of cities, towns and villages.
Residents of the municipality elect the mayor and council members to lead the local government. Committees of councillors discuss budget, service and administrative issues that are then passed on to the council for debate. Citizens, business owners and community groups can present their concerns to councillors at committee meetings.
Municipalities may also be part of a larger county or regional government (for example, York Region).
