Nothing Like A Party
In Canada we like parties not just the parties where you go and drink and have a good old time. We like political parties. Well we must because since July 1st 1867 when we became the Dominion of Canada there have been 169 political parties.
Currently there are 4 political parties with members in the house of commons. They are the Conservative Party of Canada, the Liberal Party of Canada, the New Democratic Party and the Bloc Que’be’cois. There are also 15 other parties registered by Elections Canada, 24 unregistered parties, 45 historical parties that have elected members to Parliament and 68 historical parties that nominated candidates.
