Carol Anstey (Conservative Party of Canada) holds Long Range Mountains, the riding that includes Stephenville Crossing

From Newfoundland and Labrador come 7 MPs, 4 of them with the Liberal Party of Canada. Locally, Stephenville Crossing is run as a town. In Newfoundland and Labrador, councils aren’t on any open list we can use, so Stephenville Crossing’s mayor isn’t named. Stephenville Crossing’s riding for the House of Assembly of Newfoundland and Labrador isn’t shown: the province’s boundary file states no licence, so it can’t be reused.

How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • Election results. Two maps are in play: the 2013 ridings, on which 2019 and 2021 were counted, and the 2023 ridings, onto which Elections Canada transposed the 2021 vote poll by poll.
  • 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. Each place is put in its ridings by where its 2021 Census residents live; a riding holding 5% or more of them is listed.
