Two Electoral District Associations Deregistered

Summary#

The Canada Gazette published a notice that two registered electoral district associations will be deregistered under the Canada Elections Act, effective September 15, 2025. The two groups named are the Dufferin—Caledon Green Party Association and the PPC Fraser Valley Regional Association (in the electoral district of Abbotsford—South Langley). The notice appears in the August 23, 2025 issue of the Gazette and is dated August 12, 2025.

What it does#

• Announces the formal deregistration of two electoral district associations under the Canada Elections Act.
• Names the specific associations being deregistered:
  • Dufferin—Caledon Green Party Association
  • PPC Fraser Valley Regional Association (in the electoral district of Abbotsford—South Langley)
• Gives an effective date for the deregistration: September 15, 2025.
• The notice does not explain the reasons for deregistration or list any follow-up steps.

Who's affected#

• Members, volunteers and local organizers of the Dufferin—Caledon Green Party Association and the PPC Fraser Valley Regional Association.
• People involved in local political activity in the Dufferin—Caledon area and Abbotsford—South Langley.
• The national or provincial party organizations those groups are connected to (as identified by the group names).
• The public: voters in those districts may notice changes in local party activity or candidate organizing.

Why it matters#

• Deregistration means those groups are no longer listed as registered electoral district associations under the Canada Elections Act, which can change how they operate in an official campaign context.
• That may affect local fundraising, campaign organization and formal campaign activities tied to registered status — though the Gazette notice itself does not describe specific consequences.
• If you are a local member, volunteer, prospective candidate or donor in the named districts, you may want to check with the party or Elections Canada for details about what this means in practice.
