Civic life, explained
The House is in session. So are you.
Cicero follows Parliament, provincial legislatures and city councils, and tells you — in plain language — what is being decided, who decided it, and how it touches your life.

Your representatives
Tell Cicero where you live and it finds your MP, MPP or MNA, and city councillor — with their record, their words and a way to reach them.

Cicero is independent and non-partisan. It isn't affiliated with any government, legislature or political party. Summaries are written with the help of AI and can make mistakes, so every one links back to the official record.
