Summary

Summary#

This Canada Gazette notice records two routine Parliament items. It announces a standing-order notice about private bills and it confirms that Danielle Martin was elected as the Member of Parliament for University—Rosedale, with the official return received on April 25, 2026.

What it does#

  • Notes that Standing Order 130 (about notices of intended applications for private bills) was previously published on May 24, 2025 and gives a contact for the Private Members’ Business Office (House of Commons). The Clerk of the House of Commons, Eric Janse, is named in the notice.
  • Publishes the official return of the by-election held on April 13, 2026 for the electoral district University—Rosedale, confirming that Danielle Martin was elected and that the return was received on April 25, 2026. The confirmation comes from Stéphane Perrault, Chief Electoral Officer, under the Canada Elections Act.

Who's affected#

  • Residents and voters in University—Rosedale — they now have Danielle Martin listed as their MP.
  • The House of Commons and political parties — one seat was filled by the by-election result.
  • People or groups who plan to apply for a private bill — the standing-order notice and contact information are relevant.
  • If it’s unclear who else might be affected by the private-bill notice, the Gazette item does not provide further detail.

Why it matters#

  • Constituents of University—Rosedale regain representation in Parliament and have an MP to raise local issues, requests, and services.
  • Filling the seat can affect parliamentary votes and party standings, even if only slightly.
  • The standing-order notice is mainly procedural but matters to anyone seeking to introduce a private bill, because it tells them where to get more information.
