How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • Council money. MAMH’s 2024 financial report, consolidated: charges by service, with revenue, debt and reserves from the financial profile, per resident with MAMH’s own population.
  • Council size. Every seat counts, the head of council’s too, against the population of the 2021 Census.
  • Which riding. A place belongs to the riding where most of its 2021 Census residents live, plus any other with 5% or more.
  • 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.
  • Not on this page. The open files end at election night: no council votes since, and no band councils.
  • 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.
