Engaging with your Member of Parliament (MP) is key to effective advocacy and starts with staying informed. MPs regularly share updates on their work in Ottawa and in your community through newsletters, highlighting local events, federal programs, and opportunities to engage.

To find out who your Member of Parliament is, type your postal code on the House of Commons website and then find their website by clicking the contact information button. You can usually sign up for their newsletters through their website. If you cannot find their website in the tab, search their name to find it. These updates help you understand their priorities and spot the right moments to speak up. This simple action can increase the impact of your advocacy. And don’t forget to follow your MP on social media as well!

Expert tip: Use the EPIC model of effective communication to get your message across clearly when you communicate with MPs.
