71 of the 122 MPs from Ontario belong to the Liberal Party of Canada. As a reserve, Wikwemikong Unceded is run by its First Nation’s council, which the open municipal lists don’t cover. The Legislative Assembly of Ontario’s northern ridings aren’t the federal ones and aren’t published as open data, so Wikwemikong Unceded isn’t placed.
Three governments, and who does what
Wikwemikong Unceded is a First Nations reserve: its band council, Ottawa and Ontario share the work.
The First Nation’s own band council.
Schools, health care, highways, municipal law.

- 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. Who controls the council by party (the open lists give none, and most Canadian councils sit without parties), budgets and band councils.
- Who holds each seat. Who holds each seat is read from Wikidata, so a very recent change in the Commons may not appear yet.
- Which riding. Ridings are assigned from the 2021 Census: the one with most residents first, then any holding 5% or more.
