Canada’s 45th Parliament opened on May 26 for a brief four-week sitting. There were no sitting days prior to that in 2025 because former prime minister Justin Trudeau prorogued Parliament in order to allow time for the Liberal Party to conduct a leadership race to select his hand picked replacement.

Having won the leadership, Mr. Carney opted to call an election rather than meet the House, where opposition parties were threatening to bring down the government.
As a result, the House is on track this year to have the fewest sitting days in nearly a century. It could sit for just 73 days (assuming these 73 days actually happen). While the number of sitting days is typically lower during election years, that would be the fewest since 1937.
