Mount Royal MP Listing Corrected

Summary#

This Canada Gazette notice (Part I, Vol. 159, No. 22) published on May 31, 2025 lists routine House of Commons items. It records that Standing Order 130 was published and corrects an error in the published return of members under the Canada Elections Act — the riding should read Mount Royal with member Anthony Housefather.

What it does#

• Notes that Standing Order 130 was published in the Canada Gazette on May 24, 2025 and gives the contact for the Private Members’ Business Office for more information.
• Records an erratum from Eric Janse, Clerk of the House of Commons.
• Under the Canada Elections Act, corrects an earlier listing whose English name for an electoral district was wrong. The corrected entry shows the electoral district Mount Royal and the elected member Anthony Housefather. The original mistaken entry appeared on May 14, 2025 (Extra No. 9). The correction was republished as Extra Vol. 159, No. 12 on May 21, 2025 and as Extra No. 13 on May 26, 2025.
• Notes that the HTML version of the return has already been updated.

Who's affected#

• The Private Members’ Business Office and anyone tracking notices about private bills or House of Commons procedure.
• Residents, local media, and others interested in the riding of Mount Royal and its Member of Parliament, Anthony Housefather.
• People who use official election returns or government archives — researchers, journalists, and election officials who rely on accurate published records.
• If it’s unclear who else is affected, that means this is mainly a routine correction and administrative note.

Why it matters#

• Official publications are the record for elections and parliamentary business. Fixing the name prevents confusion about which riding and MP are listed.
• Accurate Gazette entries help journalists, researchers, and the public who rely on government documents.
• For most people this is a minor, routine correction; it mainly matters to those using the official returns or seeking contact information about private members’ business.
