<Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> <P> Canada holds elections for legislatures or governments in several jurisdictions: nationally (federally), provincially and territorially, and municipally . Elections are also held for self - governing First Nations and for many other public and private organizations including corporations and trade unions . Municipal elections can also be held for both upper - tier (regional municipality or county) and lower - tier (town and city) governments . Formal elections have occurred in Canada since at least 1792, when both Upper Canada and Lower Canada had their first elections . </P> <P> National voting is available to Canadian citizens aged 18 or older who reside in Canada or have been abroad for shorter than five years . Other elections may have citizenship, residency, or ownership requirements (some municipalities allow both residents and non-resident landowners to vote). </P> <P> The Parliament of Canada has two chambers: The House of Commons has 338 members, elected for a maximum five - year term in single - seat constituencies, and the Senate has 105 members appointed by the governor general on the advice of the prime minister . Senators are given permanent terms (up to age 75) and thus often serve much longer than the prime minister who was primarily responsible for their appointment . </P>
