Three electoral district associations deregistered

Summary#

This Canada Gazette notice records that several local party organizations were removed from the official register under the Canada Elections Act, effective October 15, 2023. It also repeats that Standing Order 130 (about private-bill notice requirements) was previously published on November 20, 2021.

What it does#

• Deregisters these electoral district associations, effective October 15, 2023:
  • Northumberland–Peterborough South Green Party of Canada
  • Bloc Québécois Saint‑Hyacinthe–Bagot
  • Central Alberta PPC Association
• States the deregistrations were made under the Canada Elections Act.
• Reminds readers that Standing Order 130 (on notices of intended applications for private bills) was published in the Canada Gazette on November 20, 2021.

Who's affected#

• Members, volunteers and local organizers of the named associations:
  • Northumberland–Peterborough South Green Party of Canada
  • Bloc Québécois Saint‑Hyacinthe–Bagot
  • Central Alberta PPC Association
• The Office of the Chief Electoral Officer, which published the notice.
• Voters in those districts may notice changes only if the local groups change how they operate; the notice itself does not explain operational effects.

Why it matters#

• The Gazette entry is an official record that these local party groups no longer have registered status as of October 15, 2023.
• The notice does not spell out the practical consequences of deregistration. If you are a member, supporter, donor or volunteer of one of the named groups, you may want to contact Elections Canada or the relevant national party for details about what this change means in practice.
