Petitions

House of Commons petitions are a great tool for constituents to bring their issues to the Government of Canada. With just 25 signatures for a paper petition or 500 signatures for an e-petition, the sponsoring M.P. is given the opportunity to table the petition and speak on the issue in the Chamber. 

E-petitions must be created through the House of Commons Petitions Portal. Petitions hosted on third party platforms such as Change.org can not be certified by the Clerk of Petitions and thus cannot be presented in the House of Commons. For more information on the e-petitions process, please consult the Electronic Petitions Guide and Terms of Use.

Paper petitions must be downloaded and hard copies with original signatures mailed postage free to our office. Signatories must be Canadian citizens or permanent residents (there is no age requirement). If you do not see the petitions below right away, please refresh your browser.
