As the official newspaper of the Government of Canada published since 1841, the Canada Gazette is one of the vehicles that Canadians can use to access the laws and regulations that govern their daily lives.
Government departments and agencies as well as
stakeholders from the private sector are required by law to publish
certain information in the Canada Gazette. The official newspaper is published under the authority of the Statutory Instruments Act and of the Statutory Instruments Regulations.
The Canada Gazette contains formal
public notices, official appointments, proposed regulations, regulations
and public Acts of Parliament from government departments and agencies.
It also contains miscellaneous public notices from the private sector.
The Canada Gazette serves as a
consultative tool between the Government of Canada and Canadians. It
gives Canadians the opportunity to provide their comments on the
proposed regulations published in the Canada Gazette, Part Ⅰ.
For each of the proposed regulations listed, there is a contact name
from the relevant department or agency and a closing date for comments.
Anyone who may be affected by the proposed regulations can also request
background information from the issuing department.
The Canada Gazette plays an important
role in Canada’s regulatory process. Not only does it serve as official
notice to Canadians, it also allows participation in the regulatory
process by voicing opinions or providing comments as befits our
democratic system.
