Electoral districts are constituencies that elect members of Parliament in Canada's House of Commons.

Nova Scotia – 16 seats

Prince Edward Island – 4 seats

When the new arrangement was devised in 1914, it gave PEI only three seats. After public complaints, a rule that a province could not have fewer MPs than Senators was introduced giving PEI back a fourth seat in 1915. The arrangement with only three PEI seats was never used in an election.

Quebec – 65 seats

Ontario – 82 seats

Manitoba – 15 seats

Saskatchewan – 16 seats
