CGP Web site

In May of this year Designated Officials were informed that their name and telephone number would be removed from the Registration Search page of the CGP Web site unless consent was received to disclose this information. If you would like this information to reappear on the Web site and you have not already done so, please forward your authorization via facsimile to 613-948-1722 or e-mail to ncr.cgp@pwgsc.gc.ca.

We invite you to visit the newly redesigned Contact Us page of the Web site, which includes better navigation options along with an improved format. We have also equipped this Web site page with a Tell Us What You Think form, which provides a venue for you to submit comments on what you liked or did not like about our Web site and Call Centre, as well as offer suggestions on improvements.

Visit the Web site at www.cgp.gc.ca as your primary source for information on the CGP.

New Telephone Number

The new CGP Call Centre telephone number is 1 866 368-4646. You Can reach agents toll-free Monday to Friday from 8:00a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The former toll-free number will remain active for a period of time and if dialled will direct your call to the new telephone number.
