How democracy interplay and political culture affect the public administration in Canada
Canada is a recognized democratic country known for its parliamentary democracy as well as its constitutional monarchy. On public administration, every country must have a constitution. The Canadian law consists of the written as well as unwritten customs, acts as well as judicial decisions and country traditions. The Canadian legal system is founded on the English common law, though consists of the 1867 constitution document that was later transformed to transfer the power of rule from the British colony to the Canadian government. Canada is organized into administrative divisions, which include three territories as well as some provinces. The executive domineering of Canada came into play in the year 1867 after the country gained its independence. Canada has more than 31 million people, with more than 80 percent of the population residing in towns and cities bordering the United States.

A political culture is determined by the feelings that people hold towards a community in general. Without reference to any country, a political culture is characterized by values such as patriotism, the pride of one's nation, the attitude that one holds towards their country and the pride one finds in associating with their country.
