The seats by province, as the House lists its members, and the change since the 2025 election: a bar a province, its segments the parties, the empty seats hatched; the outlined segment is the Conservative one, the dashed hairline where the count of the April 28, 2025 election fell.

I. The seats as listed, and the change since the election

A seat is counted for the caucus the House lists the member in, so a member who crossed the floor is counted where they sit on the list, and a riding with no member on the list is empty. A province’s total is its ridings in the 2023 representation order, the boundaries the 2025 election was fought on. The last column is the difference from the count the official results of April 28, 2025 left, each change a dated row of the ledger. A province’s row is seats, not votes: a party can hold most of a province’s seats with less than half its vote, and the vote itself is on each riding’s page. The table prints the ten provinces, the largest first, and the three territories, one seat each, follow in the CSV under it. The House’s list changes between readings, and the date under the title, the figures’ own, is the day the record read it.

II. The empty seats and the next election

The seats with no member, as the record last read the House, are listed with the day each fell empty, the day Elections Canada received the Speaker’s warrant, and the last days the statutes allow for calling and holding the by-election. These rows are the record’s own, the same as How the House stands, not the figures file’s.

6 of 343 seats are empty as of November 1, 2026. The next general election is fixed by law for (Canada Elections Act, s. 56.1(2)); Parliament can be dissolved sooner (Canada Elections Act, s. 56.1(1)).

The clock: a writ between the 11th and the 180th day after the warrant (Parliament of Canada Act, s. 31(1)), polling on a Monday 36 to 50 days after the writ (Canada Elections Act, s. 57(1.2)(c)). Warrants from Elections Canada’s releases; every seat’s clock.

What this does not say, and how it was made. The party whose listed members differ most from the election's count. Two series may be shown moving together, each dated and both figures printed. The page never states a cause as fact: each reading below is labelled a reading, with what would confirm or refute it. A move inside the pollsters’ stated error is said to be inside it. A census figure describes a riding, never its voters.
