Of the 10 Commons seats from New Brunswick, the Liberal Party of Canada holds 6. The Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick’s ridings aren’t published as open data we could find, so Northampton isn’t placed in one. Northampton is a parish by Statistics Canada’s count of municipalities. No open list of councils exists in New Brunswick, so no mayor of Northampton is named here.

- Not on this page. Who controls the council by party (the open lists give none, and most Canadian councils sit without parties), budgets and band councils.
- Election results. The 2019 and 2021 figures are Elections Canada’s official counts on the ridings drawn in 2013; the “today’s boundaries” figures are its transposition of the 2021 vote onto the 2023 ridings, an estimate built from polling divisions.
- Which riding. A place belongs to the riding where most of its 2021 Census residents live, plus any other with 5% or more.
- 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.
