6 of the 10 MPs from New Brunswick belong to the Liberal Party of Canada. Statistics Canada lists Plaster Rock as a village. Mayors and councillors in New Brunswick aren’t on any open list, so Plaster Rock’s council goes unnamed here. No provincial riding is named for Plaster Rock, as no open boundary file exists for the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick that we could find.

electionsnb.ca ↗What this data can and can’t tell you
- 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.
- Not on this page. The open lists stop short of party labels, council budgets and band councils, so those are missing here.
- Who holds each seat. A member who resigned or switched parties last week may still show here: the names are Wikidata’s.
- Which riding. The 2021 Census homes of a place’s residents fix its ridings, and one is shown once it holds 5% of them.
