29th Canadian Parliament
The 29th Canadian Parliament was in session from January 4, 1973, until May 9, 1974. The membership was set by the 1972 federal election on October 30, 1972, and it was dissolved prior to the 1974 election.
It was controlled by a Liberal Party minority led by Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and the 20th Canadian Ministry, with the support of David Lewis's New Democratic Party. The Official Opposition was the Progressive Conservative Party, led by Robert Stanfield.
The Speaker was Lucien Lamoureux. See also List of Canadian electoral districts 1966-1976 for a list of the ridings in this parliament.
The government lost the confidence of the house when finance minister John Turner's budget was defeated by a vote of 137 – 123 in 1974, prompting the prime minister to seek dissolution of parliament for the next election.
There were two sessions of the 29th Parliament:
| Session | Start | End |
| 1st | January 4, 1973 | February 26, 1974 |
| 2nd | February 27, 1974 | May 9, 1974 |
