Party standings in the House of Commons of Canada
In the party standings in the House of Commons of Canada, Members of Parliament are generally seated as a group with members of the caucus of their political party. The members of the governing party or parties are seated to the right of the Speaker in the House of Commons, while members of opposition parties are generally seated to the left of the Speaker. Where the governing party or parties have more than half the members of the House, members of the government caucus are seated on the "opposition side" (as is the case with the current Parliament), and where the government has less than half of the seats, opposition members are seated on the "government side".
The layout below represents the most recent one in use in the House of Commons. When resignations or other changes occur while the House is not sitting (for example, the summer of 2014), the layout cannot be updated until a new one is actually put into effect.
