Two PPC Electoral Associations Deregistered

Summary#

This Canada Gazette entry notes a House of Commons procedural item and the deregistration of two local electoral associations under the Canada Elections Act. The two groups listed — Okanagan-Kootenay PPC Association (59030) and Sault Ste. Marie - Algoma PPC District Association — are set to be deregistered effective August 31, 2025.

What it does#

• Notes that Standing Order 130 (about notices of intended private bills) was published earlier and gives contact details for the Private Members’ Business Office for more information.
• Announces, under the Canada Elections Act, that the following registered electoral district associations will be deregistered effective August 31, 2025:
  • Okanagan-Kootenay PPC Association (59030)
  • Sault Ste. Marie - Algoma PPC District Association

Who's affected#

• The two named registered electoral district associations and the people who work with them locally (officers, volunteers, and supporters).
• Local donors or campaign organizers connected to those associations.
• It may also be relevant to anyone tracking local party organization or election financing in those districts.
• If it’s unclear how deregistration affects specific activities (fundraising, campaign status, reporting), people should contact Elections Canada for details.

Why it matters#

• Deregistration changes the official status of these local political groups under the Canada Elections Act, starting August 31, 2025.
• That status can affect what the associations are allowed to do around fundraising, reporting, and campaign work.
• Anyone involved with these associations should check with Elections Canada or their party to understand the practical consequences.
