In Canada, Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition (popularly known as the Official Opposition) is simply the political party which holds the most seats in the House of Commons (or a provincial assembly) next to the dominant party. Usually it is the second-largest party. The Official Opposition may be either a narrowly defined party or a coalition. Currently, the New Democratic Party of Canada forms the official opposition in Canada, for the first time in its history. It has held this status since 2011, when it won a party record 103 seats in the House of Commons - second to the Conservative Party's 166 seats.
