Of the 10 Commons seats from New Brunswick, the Liberal Party of Canada holds 6. Alnwick’s riding for the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick isn’t shown: no open file of the province’s riding boundaries could be found. Locally, Alnwick is run as a parish. In New Brunswick, councils aren’t on any open list we can use, so Alnwick’s mayor isn’t named.

- 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. MPs come from Wikidata’s records of the 45th Parliament, which can lag a resignation or a by-election by some days.
