Summary#
This Parliament section of the Canada Gazette records a few short decisions and notices. It shows that two bills received royal assent on November 20, 2025, and that the Hamilton Centre - Green Association will be deregistered under the Canada Elections Act effective December 31, 2025.
What it does#
- Notes that Standing Order 130 (about private-bill notices) was published in the Gazette on May 24, 2025 and gives contact information for the Private Members’ Business Office.
- Records that, on November 20, 2025, royal assent was signified for:
- An Act to amend the Citizenship Act (2025) (Bill C-3, chapter 5, 2025).
- An Act to authorize Gore Mutual Insurance Company to apply to be continued as a body corporate under the laws of the Province of Quebec (Bill S-1001, 2025).
- Announces that, in accordance with the Canada Elections Act, the Hamilton Centre - Green Association is deregistered, effective December 31, 2025.
Who's affected#
- People affected by changes to the Citizenship Act: applicants, recent immigrants, and anyone following citizenship rules. The Gazette notice does not describe the amendment’s details.
- Gore Mutual Insurance Company, which is authorized to apply to change its corporate status under Quebec law.
- Members, volunteers, donors and local organizers tied to the Hamilton Centre - Green Association (the local Green electoral district association).
- Staff who manage private members’ business and House of Commons notices may use the published Standing Order information.
Why it matters#
- Royal assent on November 20, 2025 means those two bills were formally enacted; that can change law and rights, but the Gazette notice does not explain the content of the citizenship amendment.
- Deregistration of the Hamilton Centre - Green Association (effective December 31, 2025) removes it from the list of registered electoral district associations under the Canada Elections Act, which affects its official status for election-related activities at the riding level.
- The Standing Order notice is mainly administrative but tells interested people where to get more information about private-bill procedures.
