The images for the infobox need to be created. Image:Canada 2008 Federal Election seats.svg contains the current seat arrangement. Image:39th Can Senate.png would need its text updated but would otherwise serve. The House image should mirror the text of Image:39th Can Parl.png. I wonder, though, could these be done as SVGs this time? - Rrius ( talk) 07:11, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
References in the board go up to 6, and footnotes go up to 5. As there is no #2 in the board, it seems that footnote #2 refers to the board's #3, footnote #3 refers to the board's #4, etc...
I don't know how to edit that, since all there is in the edit page of this section is "{{40th Canadian Parliament standings}}", which I don't know how to change.

Shouldn't this be expanded to include the latest, whereby the opposition defeats the government and forms the new government as a coalition, if they can work out the details and get the GG to accept? 76.66.195.63 ( talk) 13:13, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
I just have an issue with the wording in the part of the page. It states that if the government falls, and the Liberals form a coalition government, then this would become the 41st Canadian Parliament. However, In the 15th Canadian Parliament, when Lord Byng refused to dissolve Parliament as per Mackenzie King's request, and instead appointed the weaker opposition party as the new government, it did not become the 16th Canadian Parliament, but rather remained the 15th. So, wouldn't that mean that this will technically remain the 40th Canadian Parliament? From what I can tell, you only become a new Parliament when the people vote in an election.

Was the first session of the 40th Parliament the shortest ever? If so, it should be in the article. - Rrius ( talk) 04:28, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
We should have an image of the Prime Minister, at this article. We have PM images on all the articles (except the 38th Parliament) from the 1st to 39th Parliament articles. GoodDay ( talk) 19:32, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
While the government has been found in contempt and has no confidence in the house, it must be dissolved byt the Governor General before it officially ends. -- Natural RX 18:26, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
In the Parliaments where the prime minister, opposition leader, speaker of the house & other officials serve in their offices the entire Parliament? we shouldn't be using 'dates' under them. Where's there's a change of officials during the same parliament? we should just use the departer's date & the incomer's date. GoodDay ( talk) 20:48, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
I removed the archive link because the page had moved, and the archive link was for the old page, not the one now being used as a source. I just wanted to make sure it was clear that they are technically not pointing at the same place, and it might be better to find an archive of the current page instead of the old one. — Torchiest talk edits 17:11, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
