===Article I: Voting for Leaders===
The citizens of Canada vote for a new president every five years who can serve as many terms as they want. Citizens also vote for representatives of their province and a senator. Each state gets four Senators and each state gets one Representative for every 500,000 citizens. Senators serve for three year periods before getting re-elected and they can serve up to 12 years in the Senate. Representatives serve for two years and can serve 16 years. The popular vote is used for every form of election. Each province will have a governor, who will have a seat in the Executive Committee. Governors are voted for by members of each province. Each governor serves up to four years before having the chance of getting re-elected forever. 
===Article II: The Executive Branch===
This is the top branch of the government. The Queen/King of the UK is the official head of state. A President will be elected and a Vice President to lead the country for the Queen/King. The Citizen Protection Act was passed in 2032 under the Scheer Administration to bar any power the Queen/King may pose over the country and keep them from deciding Canadian politics. The President will nominate a Vice President when he/she is elected. Elections are the first Monday of December and the president will be sworn in on Christmas Eve, although not having to preform duties until December 26th. Under the Vice President becomes the Chairman of the Executive Committee, who is chosen by the President. This leader must be a former President or Governor. Under the Chairman of Executive Committee is the Senate Majority Leader, who leads the Senate and splits up ties. They are voted for by the Senate. Following this is the Speaker of the House, who leads the House of Representatives. Under the Speaker is the Secretary of State, Secretary of Treasury, Secretary of Defense, Attorney General, Secretary of Interior, Secretary of Agriculture, Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of Debt and Financial Affairs, Secretary of Space, Science, and Research, Secretary Health and Human Services, Secretary of Infrastructure, Secretary of Energy, Secretary of Education.
===Article III: The Legislative Branch===
This is the law-making branch of the government. It starts in the House of Representatives where bills are first submitted/written and then voted on. If the majority vote for it, it goes to the Senate. If the majority votes against it, it dies. When the bill goes to the Senate, the Senate votes on whether to send it up or kill it. They then can send it to the President for signature, or they can send it the Executive Committee for signature. If the Executive Committee votes unanimously to pass it it will become a law. If not, it dies. The President can sign the bill into a law or veto it. If he vetoes it, the bill will die. If it is signed, it will go into power after 30 days. If the president writes a bill, it goes to the Senate, and then the Executive Committee, where they need a majority vote. If the bill gets revised, then it goes to the House and they have final say.
