A commissioner has the power to administer oath required by legislation or regulation (for e.g.: declaration, confirmation of residence (Medicare), travel approval, insurance, etc.) either by virtue of his/her status (of lawyer, court clerk, etc.) or because he/she has been authorized by the Minister of Justice to act as a commissioner for oaths.

WARNING: documents MUST be signed in front of the commissioner for oaths.

Appointment is necessary by calling at 450-424-8000 ext. 221. This service is free.
