London Ontario's Remembrance Day Observance is held at the cenotaph. Organized and hosted by a private volunteer committee of the Royal Canadian Legion, this annual ceremony takes place on November 11 at 10:45 a.m., with two minutes of silence observed at 11:00 a.m.

Commissioner of oaths

Commissioner of oath services are available by walk-in at City Hall. If you have any inquiries prior to your visit, please call 519-661-4530.

A commissioner is a person authorized by the Province of Ontario to take oaths or declarations when you sign an affidavit or statutory declaration. A commissioner does not certify that the statements being made in the affidavit or statutory declaration are true, but only certifies that an oath or solemn affirmation has been administered properly. This authority is conferred to the City Clerk and designated by the Commissioners for taking Affidavits Act.

The City Clerk’s Office does not provide notary public services and cannot notarize documents. A list of notary public or lawyers can be found in your local phone directory or online.

Find a notary public or commissioner of oaths for taking affidavits

The City Clerk’s Office does not provide services related to affidavits to be filed in court proceedings. These may be sworn before a court official authorized to take affidavits where the documents are to be filed. Often a fee is required.

Since the nature of documents varies greatly, it is strongly recommended that you contact the City Clerk’s Office prior to your visit to confirm that your documents can be commissioned at City Hall.

Responsibility

If you are signing a legal document that requires your oath, the content of that document is your sole responsibility. When you are making an oath, you must understand the details in the document to which you are attesting – and you must understand that, by swearing an oath, you are attesting that those details are correct.

If a commissioner of oaths is unsure about the identity of the individual or the content of the document, the commissioner of oaths may refuse to sign the document. It is at the sole discretion of the individual commissioner of oaths whether they choose to sign any document or declaration.

Process

The request for the commissioner of oaths service must be made by the same individual(s) taking the oath and signing the document. You must present one original and valid government issued piece of photo identification with a signature on it (a driver's licence, a government issued identity card, a passport, for example). If your identification is in a language other than English or French, an official translation of the document may be required.

Your signature must be witnessed in front of the commissioner.

Fees

$30.00 plus applicable taxes per commissioner of oath signature

$45.00 plus applicable taxes per statutory declaration and signature

Drop down: Hours and places of service
