Question on ex MP's
Is an ex Member of Parliament still addressed as honourable after losing their seat in parliament?

Re: Question on ex MP's
Apparently if the MP was a member of cabinet (and therefore a member of the Privy Council) he or she is allowed to use the term "Honourable" for life. But all other MPs lose the right to use the title once they leave office.

Members of the Ministry are members of the Queen's Privy Council for Canada and retain the title "Honourable" for life, using the initials P.C. after their name.
