Parliamentary Press Gallery

Parliamentary Press Gallery

The Parliamentary Press Gallery is an association established to oversee rules and responsibilities of Canadian journalists when at Parliament Hill. The organization was formed likely before Confederation in 1867. During the early years of the association, the members were associated with political parties. Membership of the Gallery is determined by the association, but, the final decision lies with the Speaker of the House of Commons.

Each province of Canada also has its own press gallery.
