Liverpool has no council of its own: it belongs to Queens, a regional municipality. Mayors and councillors in Nova Scotia aren’t on any open list, so Liverpool’s council goes unnamed here. Liverpool’s riding for the Nova Scotia House of Assembly isn’t shown: no open file of the province’s riding boundaries could be found. Of the 11 Commons seats from Nova Scotia, the Liberal Party of Canada holds 11.

electionsnovascotia.ca ↗What this data can and can’t tell you
- Who holds each seat. Wikidata, edited by volunteers, is the source for each MP, and it can trail a change of seat by a little.
- Which riding. Ridings are assigned from the 2021 Census: the one with most residents first, then any holding 5% or more.
- Election results. Where the page says “today’s boundaries”, it means Elections Canada’s estimate of the 2021 vote on the 2023 ridings; every other count is official and on the 2013 map.
- Not on this page. The open lists stop short of party labels, council budgets and band councils, so those are missing here.
