Question Period - Additional Notes

Additional Notes

Each of the provincial legislatures also conducts its own form of question period.

Question Period in Canada is similar to the Prime Minister's Questions practice of the Parliament of the United Kingdom; however it is important to note that the Canadian version occurs daily as opposed to weekly, runs 45 minutes instead of 30 and questions may be asked to any cabinet member, not just the Prime Minister.
