- Not on this page. How councillors voted once in office, and band councils, are beyond the open record.
- Who holds each seat. A member who resigned or switched parties last week may still show here: the names are Wikidata’s.
- Which riding. Where residents of the 2021 Census live decides the riding; any riding with 5% of them or more is named.
- Election results. Two maps are in play: the 2013 ridings, on which 2019 and 2021 were counted, and the 2023 ridings, onto which Elections Canada transposed the 2021 vote poll by poll.
- Council size. The 2021 Census population is shared over all council seats, including the head of council’s, for this ratio.
- Council money. Spending by service comes from MAMH’s consolidated 2024 financial report, revenue, debt and reserves from its financial profile, all per resident on MAMH’s population.
