Currently, no party holds a majority of seats in the House of Commons.
Her Majesty's Government for Canada (the Conservative Party) holds a plurality of seats (144), but must govern with the support of nine or more opposition members of the Commons on all key votes. Should a measure of confidence (i.e., any vote on a budget, a ways and means motion, or a key agenda piece of the Government) not pass, the Government would be considered defeated and would need to resign or seek a dissolution of Parliament.

Her Majesty the Queen of Canada holds vast powers to be used during a constitutional crisis or emergency.

What is the maximum term for a Canadian Cabinet Minister?
There is no maximum. Theoretically a Canadian can be a Cabinet Minister from the age of 18 (the minimum voting age in the country) until death. The oldest Canadian lived to be about 116, so the maximum term for a Canadian Cabinet Minister is approximately 100 years. This has never happened. A Cabinet Minister in Canada in almost every case has to be a member of the party which holds the majority in the House of Commons, and it is unusual for any party to hold such a majority for more than 30 years.
