Ned Kuruc (Conservative Party of Canada) represents Felker in Ottawa as MP for Hamilton East—Stoney Creek
Across Ontario, 71 of the 122 MPs sit with the Liberal Party of Canada. As a neighbourhood of Hamilton, Felker shares the council elected in October 2022, with Andrea Horwath as mayor. The council shown is the one elected in 2022, since Ontario voted again on 26 October 2026 and no open file of the new councils exists yet. Provincially, Felker votes in Flamborough—Glanbrook; the open record doesn’t name its MPP (Member of Provincial Parliament, at Queen’s Park in Toronto) in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario, so the legislature’s own list is linked below.

elections.on.ca ↗What this data can and can’t tell you
- Council size. The council size includes the head of council; the population is the 2021 Census, the whole city’s for a neighbourhood.
- Election results. Elections Canada redrew the ridings in 2023 and re-tallied the 2021 ballots onto the new map from polling divisions; that estimate, and the official 2019 and 2021 counts on the old map, are what you see.
- Who holds each seat. A member who resigned or switched parties last week may still show here: the names are Wikidata’s.
- Which riding. A place belongs to the riding where most of its 2021 Census residents live, plus any other with 5% or more.
- Not on this page. Band councils, municipal budgets and party control are left out; most councils sit without parties anyway.
