Return of Members Elected — 44th Election

Summary#

This is a short notice from the Office of the Chief Electoral Officer under the Canada Elections Act saying that the official list (the “return”) of members elected in the 44th general election was published. The return was published as Extra Vol. 155, No. 8 on November 2, 2021, and the notice appears in the Canada Gazette on November 6, 2021.

What it does#

• Announces that the formal record of who won seats in the 44th general election has been published.
• Points readers to the earlier publication identified as Extra Vol. 155, No. 8 (published November 2, 2021).
• Does not change rules or create new requirements; it is a formal, administrative publication of results.

Who's affected#

• Members of Parliament elected in the 44th general election (they appear on the published return).
• Political parties, journalists, researchers, and members of the public who track election results or the composition of Parliament.
• If it is unclear who else might be affected, the notice itself does not say more.

Why it matters#

• This publication is the official public record that lists who was elected to sit in the new Parliament.
• It matters for transparency and for anyone confirming who will hold seats, be sworn in, or take up duties in the House of Commons.
• The item is a routine administrative step rather than a policy change.
