Judges at the provincial level are appointed by the premiere
The Ministry of the Attorney General in Ontario oversees provincial courts, which includes the Ontario Court of Justice and the Superior Court of Justice.
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.
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 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.
The Canadian Judicial System operates on a hierarchy of courts and laws. All statutes an regulations that Provinces and Cities pass must be in accordance with the Constitution. Similarly, decisions that are made in higher courts cannot be contradicted by lower courts. Decisions made in provincial courts are not binding on other Provinces, but are influential.

Yes, courts can be classified based on their function, such as trial courts, appellate courts, and specialized courts like family courts or tax courts.
