5th Canadian Parliament

The 5th Canadian Parliament was in session from February 8, 1883 until January 15, 1887. The membership was set by the 1882 federal election on June 20, 1882, and it changed only somewhat due to resignations and by-elections until it was dissolved prior to the 1887 election. It was controlled by a Conservative/Liberal-Conservative majority under Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald and the 3rd Canadian Ministry. The Official Opposition was the Liberal Party, led by Edward Blake.

The Speaker was George Airey Kirkpatrick. See also List of Canadian electoral districts 1882-1887 for a list of the ridings in this parliament.

There were four sessions of the 5th Parliament:
