If the Parole Board of Canada (PBC) proposes to deny your Pardon they will do so in writing and give you 60 days to provide written representation addressing the proposal (Pardons Canada will assist you in this process). The PBC will take your representation into account and the board will make a decision based on the recommendations of the pardon officer, your application and the written representation you submitted. The PBC will mail their decision to you. If your Pardon is denied you CANNOT challenge the denial but you may reapply in 1 year from the date on the letter.
