Founded in 1961, there have been times when Canada's New Democratic Party has been very influential in Parliament. Although it is usually the party with the third or fourth most number of seats, in 2011, the NDP had an exceptional election-- in fact, it ended up with the second most number of seats in Parliament (103). But that all changed in the 2015 elections, when the NDP lost 59 seats, causing it to fall back to third place, with only 44 seats total.
