Welcome to the House of Commons Page Program!

Each year, 40 students are selected from across Canada to participate in the Page Program. Pages are first-year students registered at one of the eligible post-secondary institutions in the national capital region. They work on a part-time basis for one year.

In the chamber and around Parliament Hill, pages support parliamentary democracy by providing a range of services to members of Parliament. This incredible work experience broadens their knowledge of the rich traditions of the Canadian parliamentary system.

Are you interested in becoming a page and being part of an unforgettable year-long experience? The page program hires a new cohort of 40 students annually. Its recruitment campaign begins every September, and those applying must be looking to enroll in their first year of university or college the following September.

Candidates’ competencies will first be assessed through an online application. Selected candidates will then undergo a second-language evaluation, an interview and reference checks. The final selection of the 40 pages is completed by the end of March each year.

Applications are open from October 14, 2024 to November 10, 2024
