National Commissions


Commissions add vitality and diversity of the Liberal Party. Commission members are encouraged to influence the policies and practices of the Party in order to keep us moving forward. Here is a little more about each of them.





These are four Commissions established in Article 4 of the Constitution of the Liberal Party of Canada



Each Commission promotes the views, interests and participation of its members within the Liberal Party.

Individual Commissions do not necessarily have the same official policy as the Liberal Party of Canada, though many overlap. Commissions push the larger membership of the Liberal Party to adopt new policies that are tailored to its specific membership. In order for a Commission to promote a policy for the entire Liberal Party to adopt, it must be an official Commission’s policy, properly adopted at a Policy Convention.

Each Commission was created to promote the participation in the Liberal Party of individuals who historically have not had an opportunity to play a significant role in the political process.
