saint-barthelemy.ca ↗What this data can and can’t tell you
- Council size. Residents per seat divide the 2021 Census population by every council seat, the head of council’s included.
- 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. The open lists stop short of party labels, council budgets and band councils, so those are missing here.
- Which riding. Ridings are assigned from the 2021 Census: the one with most residents first, then any holding 5% or more.
