7 of the 14 MPs from Manitoba belong to the Conservative Party of Canada. Pembina’s riding for the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba isn’t named: the licence for the province’s boundary file couldn’t be read, so it isn’t used. Statistics Canada lists Pembina as a municipality. Mayors and councillors in Manitoba aren’t on any open list, so Pembina’s council goes unnamed here.
Three governments, and who does what
Pembina, a municipality in Manitoba, shares the work with the province and Ottawa.

- Not on this page. The open lists stop short of party labels, council budgets and band councils, so those are missing here.
- Election results. Where the page says “today’s boundaries”, it means Elections Canada’s estimate of the 2021 vote on the 2023 ridings; every other count is official and on the 2013 map.
- Which riding. A riding is listed when 5% or more of the place’s 2021 Census residents live in it; the largest share comes first.
- Who holds each seat. The members named here are Wikidata’s, kept up by volunteers; a by-election or a floor crossing may take a few days to show.
