The Commissioners for taking Affidavits Act in Ontario allows for people to be appointed to be a commissioner for oaths. A commissioner for oaths is able to take and receive affidavits, affirmations and declarations in and for Ontario. A stamp is used along with their signature but there isn’t a seal.
