Canada Members of the Senate

Current Members of the Canadian upper chamber, the Senate

The Senate of Canada is the upper chamber of Canada's bicameral Parliament, alongside the House of Commons. The Senate consists of 105 members appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the Prime Minister. Senators represent regions, provinces, and territories across Canada and serve until the age of 75.

Senators come from diverse backgrounds including business, science, law, education, athletics, community leadership, and public service. They represent diverse ethnic, socio-economic, and cultural backgrounds.

The Senate reviews legislation passed by the House of Commons, conducts independent inquiries and studies, and ensures that minorities have a strong voice in Parliament. Senators are independent and free to speak their minds and act on their consciences.
