Parliament
So this one is a little tricky. It can refer to one of three things:
1) A period of time during that Parliament is in session. A Parliament has a maximum lifespan of five years. These periods are numbered consecutively (for example: Forty-Second Parliament, Forty-Third Parliament, etc.).
2) The legislative branch of government made up of:
- the Sovereign (represented by the Governor General),
- the Senate, and
- the House of Commons.
3) The grouping of buildings in Ottawa that comprise Parliament.
