For the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, Capilano 5 spreads over 2 ridings: North Vancouver-Lonsdale and West Vancouver-Capilano. Who sits for it as MLA now isn’t on an open record: the 2024 count is the latest open file, and a by-election or a change of party wouldn’t show here. Local government in Capilano 5, a reserve, is the First Nation’s band council, not on the open lists this page uses. Across British Columbia, 20 of the 43 MPs sit with the Liberal Party of Canada.
Three governments, and who does what
Capilano 5 is a First Nations reserve: its band council, Ottawa and British Columbia share the work.
The First Nation’s own band council.
Schools, health care, highways, municipal law.

elections.bc.ca ↗What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which riding. The 2021 Census homes of a place’s residents fix its ridings, and one is shown once it holds 5% of them.
- Who holds each seat. Wikidata, edited by volunteers, is the source for each MP, and it can trail a change of seat by a little.
- Not on this page. Council budgets, band councils, and which party runs the council: the open lists carry no party, and most councils have none.
- Election results. Official counts for 2019 and 2021 are by the 2013 ridings; Elections Canada also re-counted the 2021 ballots onto the 2023 ridings by polling division, and that estimate is what “today’s boundaries” means here.
