Commission's Report
Upon completion of the public hearings, the Commission prepared its report. The
report was then transmitted to the Speaker of the House of Commons by the Chief
Electoral Officer. The report was tabled in the House of Commons on December 10, 2002 by the Speaker and referred to the Standing Committee on Procedure and
House Affairs to give members of the House of Commons another opportunity to
comment on changes to the federal electoral boundaries. Section 22 of the
Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act provides for the filing of
objections to the report with the clerk of the committee within a period of 30 days from the day a copy of the Commission’s report is referred to the
committee. An objection must be in the form of a motion signed by not less than 10 members of the House of Commons.
