4 of the 4 MPs from Prince Edward Island belong to the Liberal Party of Canada. Wellington is a fire district by Statistics Canada’s count of municipalities. On Prince Edward Island, councils aren’t on any open list we can use, so Wellington’s mayor isn’t named. Wellington’s riding for the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island isn’t shown: the province’s boundary file states no licence, so it can’t be reused.
Three governments, and who does what
Wellington, a fire district in Prince Edward Island, shares the work with the province and Ottawa.
Local services, by-laws and property tax.
Schools, health care, highways, municipal law.

Green: municipal. Gold: provincial. Grey: federal.
The census places Wellington in Prince, a division that governs nothing; no county council sits above the town’s.

- Election results. The 2019 and 2021 figures are Elections Canada’s official counts on the ridings drawn in 2013; the “today’s boundaries” figures are its transposition of the 2021 vote onto the 2023 ridings, an estimate built from polling divisions.
- Not on this page. Party control (Canadian councils are mostly elected without parties, and the open lists record none), council budgets, and band councils.
- Who holds each seat. MPs come from Wikidata’s records of the 45th Parliament, which can lag a resignation or a by-election by some days.
- Which riding. A riding is listed when 5% or more of the place’s 2021 Census residents live in it; the largest share comes first.
