The 8th Canadian Parliament was in session from August 19, 1896, until October 9, 1900 (4 years and 51 days). The membership was set by the 1896 federal election on June 23, 1896. It was dissolved prior to the 1900 election.

It was controlled by a Liberal Party majority under Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the 8th Canadian Ministry. The Official Opposition was the Conservative/Liberal-Conservative, led by Charles Tupper.

The Speaker was first James David Edgar, and later Thomas Bain. See also List of Canadian electoral districts 1892-1903 for a list of the ridings in this parliament.
