How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • Council size. Every seat counts, the head of council’s too, against the population of the 2021 Census.
  • 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. Wikidata, edited by volunteers, is the source for each MP, and it can trail a change of seat by a little.
  • Not on this page. Band councils, municipal budgets and party control are left out; most councils sit without parties anyway.
  • Which riding. Where residents of the 2021 Census live decides the riding; any riding with 5% of them or more is named.
