The Liberal Party
The Liberal Party of Nova Scotia has 200 members, one for every riding in the nation. The Liberals are currently the most influential party, but certainly not a majority. The more liberal views of Nova Scotian's almost guarantees many seats for the party.

The Socialist Party
The Socialist Party of Nova has 200 members. This party is the oldest party out of all of them. With the very socialist based economy and practices in government, this gains the members an edge in the vote. The experience also gains lots of trust from citizens.

The Acadian Bloc
The Acadian Bloc of Nova Scotia has 113 members. The party only operates in traditional Acadian lands like Shubenacadie, Annapolis, Acadia, and beyond into Old Bruswick. The Acadian Bloc is a very cultural based party and has large amounts of support from the French Nova Scotians. Some say this party advocates for independence and separatism, however they deny such claims.

The Welsh Labour Party
The Welsh Labour Party has 89 members. This party is the smallest aside from the independents or parties that do not hold seats in Parliament. However this party is still very influential and sparked the movements within Nova Scotia to change the flag and accommodate the culture of the large Welsh Population.

It is interesting that there is no conservative party. Do most Nova Scotians have similar political views?

 

The Welsh Labourers are very reflective of the conservatives but are still quite liberal comparatively to other nations and true conservatives. However, the Nova Scotians of modern day do have very similar views.

 

(IRL Canada's Nova Scotia; all ridings are Liberal)

Is the maximum amount of members a certain party may have capped at 200?

They are not limited to staff (campaigning analytics .etc), but since we are a rather small nation landmass wise, we can only have 200 representative politicians per party. One to rep each riding.

Seriously? You have 200 ridings? Under the new government revision that is currently not completed yet, Canada will have only about 90 ridings.

Yeah, it's not proportional representation, it's equal representation via square kilometers. Each riding covers the same amount of area n the nation.
