Summary#
The Canada Gazette lists two short House of Commons items. One notes that the “Ottawa South PPC Association” has been deregistered under the Canada Elections Act, effective April 30, 2026 (notice dated March 20, 2026, signed by Jeff Merrett). It also repeats a routine notice about Standing Order 130 on private bill notices that was published May 24, 2025 and gives a contact at the Private Members’ Business Office.
What it does#
- Announces that the “Ottawa South PPC Association” is deregistered under the Canada Elections Act, with effect from April 30, 2026.
- Reminds readers that Standing Order 130 (about notices of intended applications for private bills) was published on May 24, 2025, and provides contact details for the Private Members’ Business Office.
Who's affected#
- Members, supporters or local organizers of the “Ottawa South PPC Association”.
- People or groups who use the House of Commons private-bill process (MPs and prospective private-bill applicants) may note the reference to Standing Order 130 and the contact information for the Private Members’ Business Office.
- It is not clear from the notice whether any specific candidates or broader organizations beyond the named association are directly affected.
Why it matters#
- Deregistration removes the association’s official status as a registered electoral district association. That changes how it is listed in election records and may affect how it operates under election rules. The notice does not spell out specific consequences.
- The private-bill note is routine. It mainly matters to MPs or groups planning to apply for private bills who need to follow Standing Order 130 or contact the Private Members’ Business Office.
