Today’s governments and official oppositions

by Maurice Y. Michaud (he/him)

Here is how each legislative assembly is constituted in terms of government and opposition. If all the seats in a legislature are shown as vacant, that means that a general election is currently being held.

On this 18^th day of April of the year 2026, a total of 1,120 members are sitting at the federal, provincial or territorial levels — 710 men, 405 women, and 5 persons identifying as non binary — and 3 seats are vacant. Among those sitting members:

• 639 are on the government side — 401 men, 237 women, and 1 person identifying as non binary,
• none is part of a confidence-and-supply agreement,
• and 481 are on the opposition side — 309 men, 168 women, and 4 persons identifying as non binary.

The status of the current governments within the 12 partisan assemblies is as follows:

• 12 majorities

In non-partisan assemblies, the individuals named in the ministerial cabinet are de facto considered forming the government
