Then the House Of Commons membership will not increase but bottom line - no province will lose seats it had at the last federal census. For example, Quebec originally had 65 seats in 1867 and added 10 since. That's the same number of seats it has today and despite no major population growth, it still keeps those. Ontario started out at 82 in 1867 and that number has keep pace with population growth to max out at 106 today. So while the formula for distributing seats is complicated, the bottom line is simple: no province ever loses seats.
