Summary#

The Canada Gazette notice lists two short parliamentary items. It notes Standing Order 130 (previously published) and the deregistration of the local group Calgary South Regional PPC Association under the Canada Elections Act, effective August 31, 2023.

What it does#

  • Notes that Standing Order 130 respecting notices of intended applications for private bills was published in the Canada Gazette on November 20, 2021, and gives a contact for the Private Members’ Business Office.
  • States that the registered electoral district association Calgary South Regional PPC Association is deregistered under the Canada Elections Act, effective August 31, 2023. The notice is dated July 28, 2023 and is signed by Josée Villeneuve.

Who's affected#

  • People involved with the local group named Calgary South Regional PPC Association (the source uses the abbreviation “PPC” but does not expand it).
  • Local volunteers, members, donors, or potential candidates who work with or rely on that local association.
  • Individuals planning private bills or looking for information about private members’ business; the notice points them to the Private Members’ Business Office contact.

Why it matters#

  • Deregistration means the group is no longer listed as a registered electoral district association under the Canada Elections Act. The notice itself does not spell out specific consequences, so affected people may need to check with Elections officials or the party for details.
  • The Standing Order reference and contact info matter to anyone preparing or proposing private bills in the House of Commons who needs procedural guidance.
