Different countries have a different number of MPs.

There are 650 MPs in the UK House of Commons.

There are efforts to reduce this number, perhaps to around 400. This is one of Nick Clegg, the Deputy Prime Minister's remits.

Canada does not have a House of Lords.

While the Parliament of Canada is based on the structure of the British Parliament, the Upper House of the Canadian Parliament is called the Senate. The Senate consists of 105 senators, appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the prime minister.

There are three components of the Parliament of Canada.

One component is Her Majesty the Queen (represented by the Governor General of Canada), 105 members of the Senate, and 308 members of the House of Commons. Therefore, there are 414 members at various levels of Parliament. (Also note that members of Parliament is sometimes used to refer only to members of the House of Commons, in which case the answer would be 308.)

For the House of Commons to conduct business, at least twenty (20) members must be present (this includes the Speaker of the House). If quorum is not present at the start of a day, then the Speaker adjourns the House. If quorum is not present while the House is conducting business, then the bells are rung to summon members for 15 minutes; if a quorum is then present the meeting continues, otherwise the Speaker adjourns the House.
