Are the members of parliament in Canada entitled to a diplomatic?
No, not unless they are actually serving in a diplomatic capacity. All Canadian Senators, M.P.s, Speakers of the Senate and House of Commons, Supreme Court justices, members of the Canadian Privy Council and provincial cabinet ministers and Speakers, and those travelling on official Canadian Government business in a non-diplomatic capacity usually travel on an official passport (green cover) as opposed to a tourist passport (blue cover) or a diplomatic passport (red cover). Aside from advising a foreign immigration officer that the holder of an official passport is there to represent the Government of Canada in an official capacity, the official passport bestows no special diplomatic privileges or legal immunities. Only high-ranking Canadian officials who are officially accredited to another country or to an international organisation in a diplomatic capacity and their families, the Prime Minister and his or her family, and the Governor General and his or her family generally travel on a diplomatic passport (red cover) , the latter even when travelling in their personal capacities. Diplomatic passports generally indicate that the holder is conferred special immunities and protections by the international community, whether under the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations 1961, or under various other provisions including customary international law affording such immunities to foreign heads of state and foreign heads of government.
