How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • Election results. Two maps are in play: the 2013 ridings, on which 2019 and 2021 were counted, and the 2023 ridings, onto which Elections Canada transposed the 2021 vote poll by poll.
  • Not on this page. Band councils, municipal budgets and party control are left out; most councils sit without parties anyway.
  • Who holds each seat. A member who resigned or switched parties last week may still show here: the names are Wikidata’s.
  • Which riding. Ridings are assigned from the 2021 Census: the one with most residents first, then any holding 5% or more.
