Answer:
D) While the president is directly elected by the people in several Latin American nations, in Canada, the prime minister is selected by other elected officials within the government.
Explanation:
Most Latin American states have a presidential system. The president is elected by direct suffrage, that is, he or she is elected by the vote of the people. The candidate that wins is the one that gets a majority of the vote (the winning percentage may vary according to each constitution).
Canada is a parliamentary democracy. The prime minister, who is the head of the government and the person with most power, is elected just as other members of Parliament. Because he is usually the leader of the party with a majority in the chambers, he is chosen as the prime minister.
