With no licence on the House of Assembly of Newfoundland and Labrador’s ridings map, Fortune isn’t placed in a riding here. Locally, Fortune is run as a town. Mayors and councillors in Newfoundland and Labrador aren’t on any open list, so Fortune’s council goes unnamed here. From Newfoundland and Labrador come 7 MPs, 4 of them with the Liberal Party of Canada.
Three governments, and who does what
Fortune, a town in Newfoundland and Labrador, shares the work with the province and Ottawa.
Local services, by-laws and property tax.
Schools, health care, highways, municipal law.

When Fortune votes
The last and next general elections at each level; a by-election can come in between.

The council elected on 30 September 2025 serves until 25 September 2029, when Fortune council is chosen again. That date comes from the Municipal Elections Act, which sets the last Tuesday in September every four years. The House of Assembly of Newfoundland and Labrador was last elected on 14 October 2025, and the House of Commons on 28 April 2025. The latest vote shown is 2021: the 2025 counts carry Elections Canada’s non-commercial terms.

elections.gov.nl.ca ↗What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which riding. Where residents of the 2021 Census live decides the riding; any riding with 5% of them or more is named.
- Who holds each seat. Who holds each seat is read from Wikidata, so a very recent change in the Commons may not appear yet.
- Not on this page. No council budgets, no band councils, and no party tally for the council, which the open lists don’t record.
- 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.
