Newfoundland and Labrador
Taking Action NL
Free petitions, run by residents, delivered to the people who can act: town councils, the House of Assembly, ministers and regulators. Sign online, then sign on paper where the law needs ink.
Privacy first. We collect only what a petition needs: your name, address, a signature and an email to confirm it is you. Nothing is sold, shared with advertisers or used for anything but the petition you signed. Your signature is never shown online; only the count is. The people who see your name are the organiser and the public body the petition is delivered to, and every petition tells you who that is before you sign. You can be removed from the online list by asking. Read the whole policy; it fits on one page.
Petitions by community

- Stop the fumes from 2638–2640 Topsail Road reaching our homes Residents near the cabinet-manufacturing facility at 2638–2640 Topsail Road report paint and lacquer fumes entering their homes. We ask the Town and the Province to put public safety and health first and act so the fumes stay on the facility's own lot. Read and sign →

How it works
- Read the petition. Every petition says who it goes to, what it asks, and who organises it.
- Sign online. Name, address, a drawn signature, and one email click to confirm it is you.
- Sign on paper if it is going to the House. The House of Assembly accepts only original handwritten signatures. We print a page in the House's format with your details on it; you sign in ink.
- Delivery. The organiser tables the petition with the council or hands it to an MHA, and reports back here.
A petition asks. It does not order. No petition in Canada is legally binding. What it does is put a number on how many people want something done, on the public record, in front of the people who can do it.
