In Canada, Federal Courts hear cases related to federal laws, such as cases involving the government, immigration, and intellectual property. Provincial Courts, on the other hand, handle matters that fall under provincial jurisdiction, like family law, small claims, and criminal offenses under provincial laws.
Provincial courts of Canada?
There are three types of Provincial courts. Provincial trial courts, superior provincial courts, and provincial courts of appeal. Provincial trial courts are defined under section 92 of the Constitution and are courts of original jurisdiction. They have a wide subject matter jurisdiction, including youth court, family court (not including divorce), small claims court (<$25000), summary crimes, probate court, and traffic court. They also do preliminary hearings to determine whether there is enough evidence to go forward with a trial. Judges are appointed by the premiere. Superior provincial courts are defined under section 96 of the Constitution and are courts of both original and appellate jurisdiction. They hear appeals from the provincial trial courts and also hear cases of first instance for indictable offences or very serious misdemeanors. They are run through a combination of provincial administration and federal appointment. Provincial appeal courts are governed under section 96 of the Constitution. They are courts of appellate jurisdiction meaning that they hear appeals from lower courts in their respective provinces.
What is the difference between Federal court and provincial court?
Provincial courts have jurisdiction only in their respective province whereas federal courts have unlimited jurisdiction in Canada. Decisions made in federal courts are binding throughout the country. Judges in provincial courts are appointed by premieres whereas judges in federal courts are appointed by the governor general or prime minister. Federal courts typically try cases of national importance, as opposed to summary offences, for example.

Who can reject the appointment of judges?
The appointment of a judge to the Supreme Court, the Federal Court of Appeal, the Federal Court, the Tax Court, or appellate and superior courts for the provinces, must be a recommendation of the prime minister to the Governor General. This means that the prime minister can reject the appointment of a judge to these benches. (The consent of the Governor General is needed to appoint a judge to any of the above benches, but there are almost no circumstances under which the Queen's representative would refuse the advice of the prime minister for such an appointment.)The appointment of a judge to provincial inferior courts must be a recommendation of the provincial premier to the Lieutenant Governor of the province. This means that the premier can reject the appointment of a judge to these benches. (Again, although the consent of the Lieutenant Governor is needed, the Queen's provincial representatives rarely deviate from the advice of premiers.)
