An urban caucus is a group of federal Members of Parliament representing urban ridings who meet to discuss and advocate for urban issues. MPs from cities share common concerns about transit, housing, infrastructure, homelessness, and urban growth that may differ from rural MP priorities. Urban caucuses can influence party platforms and government policy by bringing urban perspectives to party discussions. Cross-party urban caucuses might unite MPs from different parties around shared urban concerns. The concept reflects recognition that urban Canada faces distinct challenges requiring coordinated political attention. Whether formal or informal, urban caucuses represent attempts to ensure city perspectives inform federal policy development.
