What is the name of the elected legislature where provincial and territorial laws are passed?

Parliament
Congress
Depending on the province or territory: MLAs, MNAs, MPPs, MHAs
Senate

The correct answer is: Depending on the province or territory: MLAs, MNAs, MPPs, MHAs

Provincial and territorial laws are passed in the elected legislature specific to each province or territory. This means that each province or territory has its own designated elected legislature, such as MLAs in Alberta, MNAs in Quebec, MPPs in Ontario, and MHAs in Newfoundland and Labrador. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect because they pertain to the federal government, which handles national laws and regulations. While all of these elected legislatures work together under the federal government, it is important to note that provincial and territorial laws are passed separately in each respective elected legislature.
