The purpose of this enactment is to provide that only parties with a

of the House of Commons with representation from at least three
provinces or territories shall be recognized political parties. Members
of other caucuses shall be regarded as independents.

To complete the effect of this enactment, amendments to the
Standing Orders of the House would be proposed to remove any
