What is the name of mpp in Ontario?

In political terms, MPP means member of the provincial parliament. There are ten provincial parliaments in Canada, and they each have lots of members, so there is not just one MPP in Canada. Perhaps you would like to know who the Prime Minister of Canada is; at the present time (September 2011) it is Stephen Harper.

What is the difference between a MLA and a Cabinet minister?

In Canada, the term 'MLA' means Member of the Legislative Assembly. It is a term used in several provinces and territories (but not all) in reference to someone who has been elected to a provincial or territorial legislature. In Ontario the term is Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP), in Quebec, it is Member of the National assembly (MNA), and in Newfoundland it is Member of the House of Assembly (MHA). (A person who has been elected to the federal House of Commons is a Member of Parliament and is referred to as an 'MP.') A 'Cabinet' is the group of MLAs (or MPs) who actually govern. Most Cabinet Ministers are in charge of a specific government ministry, such as transportation, justice, finance, etc. A cabinet minister is almost always an MPP (or MP), but there have been some exceptions. MLAs are either members of the government party, or members of one of the opposition parties. In a parliamentary system, such as we have in Canada, voters do not elect a government. They elect a legislature. A government is then formed by the leader of the political party that elected the most MLAs (or MPs).


Does Canada have representatives if so are they elected?

What is the official title of the elected members at the federal government?

Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) =========================== The names of the legislatures at the provincial level of government in Canada display a considerable variation. The most common is "Legislative Assembly" and the politicians elected to them are called "Members of the Legislative Assembly" or MLAs. British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia employ this designation. In the three territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut) the term is also "Legislative Assembly." In Ontario, however, the legislature is called the "Provincial Parliament," in Québec it is the "National Assembly," and in Newfoundland and Labrador, it is the "House of Assembly." The elected members in those provinces are called MPPs, MNAs, and MHAs accordingly.
