The Parliament of Canada represents the federal legislative branch of Canada, seated at Parliament Hill in Ottawa. It comprises the monarch (as represented by the governor general), the Senate, and the House of Commons, each with its own officers and organization. The House of Commons is the primary legislative body, with members elected to represent electoral districts, while the Senate reviews legislation from a less partisan perspective. Located in Ottawa, the institution operates within the public sector as a key component of Canada’s government, with a framework that includes Royal Assent to bills and procedures to summon, prorogue, and dissolve parliament. The Parliament serves as the framework for national governance and lawmaking, supported by its internal offices and structures.
