Canada has 5 significant federal political parties
Conservatives (right) Liberals (center right) NDP (center left) Bloc Quebecois (regionalist) Green (Environmental)
Only Conservatives and liberals have ever formed government but NDP and Bloq have both formed official opposition and held the balance of power.
It only happens to work a bit because of strong regionalism. I also wouldn't count the green party as a serious party.
