Being a Page is sure to be one of the most exciting and memorable times of your life. It does, however, come with a number of responsibilities. If selected, you will have to study and prepare for your term of duty, wear a traditional black & white uniform, follow many rules and procedures, and commit to the program from Monday to Friday.

Plans are underway to provide a gradual resumption of the Page Program this October in a limited capacity. As we welcome the Pages back to the Legislative Building, their health and safety, as well as everyone who has direct contact with them, is top priority. 

During this trial period, we encourage all interested applicants that meet the following criteria to apply:

• Entering Grade 8 in the fall of 2021
• Live and go to school in the GTHA (Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area)
• Be fully vaccinated by the start of the term in October (both doses and 2 week wait period)
• Must have an academic average of Level 4 or 80 % (or higher)

It is important to note that the plans for the Legislative Page Program are subject to provincial and public health measures. We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and our response to it, ensuring all occupants of the building are protected.

Depending on how the requirements change, we may need to interrupt, suspend, cancel or further modify the Page Program even after on-site arrival. Thank you for your understanding.

Students must also demonstrate an involvement in a variety of extra-curricular (in and out of school) and community based activities; leadership skills; responsibility, maturity and commitment; an interest in current affairs; strong interpersonal and social skills; and an ability to get along well with peers and adults.

All applications go through an anonymous screening process to ensure fairness. Please refer to the Legislative Page Program Selection Essay Rubric (PDF) to see the assessment criteria.
