Summary#

This Canada Gazette notice records two routine House of Commons items. It notes publication of Standing Order 130 about private-bill notices, and it confirms that under the Canada Elections Act the official return of an August 18, 2025 by‑election was received, declaring Pierre Poilievre elected in Battle River—Crowfoot with the return received on September 2, 2025.

What it does#

  • Notes that Standing Order 130 (rules about notices for private bills) was published in the Gazette on May 24, 2025, and provides contact details for the Private Members’ Business Office.
  • Records the formal return under the Canada Elections Act for the by‑election held on August 18, 2025, showing Pierre Poilievre as the elected member for Battle River—Crowfoot, with the return received by the Chief Electoral Officer on September 2, 2025.

Who's affected#

  • Residents and voters of Battle River—Crowfoot — their representation in the House of Commons is the direct outcome.
  • Members and staff who deal with private bills and notices, who may refer to Standing Order 130 and the Private Members’ Business Office for guidance.
  • The House of Commons generally, because the Gazette entry updates the official public record of its membership.

Why it matters#

  • For people in Battle River—Crowfoot, it means they have a named representative in the House of Commons again.
  • The Standing Order note is mainly administrative but matters to anyone planning or tracking private‑bill activity in Parliament.
