FEDERAL ELECTORAL BOUNDARIES COMMISSION FOR THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO

Proposal of the Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for the Province of Ontario

Overview of the Proposed Redistribution Plan

Redistribution of federal electoral boundaries is governed by the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act, which sets out the Commission’s mandate and rules to be applied in redrawing boundaries.

The legislation mandates that each electoral district shall, as close as reasonably possible, correspond to the Provincial Electoral Quota (“the Quota”). The Quota is the total population divided by the number of districts. In addition, the Commission is obliged to also consider communities of interest or communities of identity in, and the historical pattern of, electoral districts, and a manageable geographic size for districts in sparsely populated, rural or northern regions of the province.

Pursuant to this mandate, the Commission proposes many new electoral boundaries for Ontario.

These proposed boundary changes are necessary due to the allocation of one additional district (bringing the total number of districts in the province to 122); and to correct wide variations in voter equality that have emerged across the province over the past decade due to population changes.

Some boundary adjustments are significant.

The ridings in Northern Ontario have been reduced by one, from ten to nine.

The ridings in the City of Toronto have been reduced by one, from 25 to 24.

The ridings in Halton, Guelph, and Wellington have been increased by one, from six to seven.

The ridings in Brampton, Caledon, and Dufferin have been increased by one, from six to seven.

One additional riding has also been added to Central Ontario, Eastern GTA, and Northern GTA.

It is necessary to adjust the boundaries of many other districts and rename districts as a result.

The Commission is presenting its proposal by referencing 15 geographic pieces. For each of these, the report presents visual illustrations of the existing and proposed electoral districts. It also provides a description of the most significant changes. In addition, the Commission has included two tables for each geographic piece, with the districts listed in alphabetical order.

The first table (A) lists the existing electoral districts, their populations in 2011, and their deviations from the 2012 Provincial Electoral Quota (i.e., at the time they were created), followed by their populations in 2021 and the resulting deviations from the 2022 Provincial Electoral Quota. The bottom rows present summary data for those existing districts including, most notably, the average deviation from the Quota and the range in deviations from the Quota. The range indicates the total magnitude of deviation from the Quota between the least and most populous districts in a geographic piece. This first table thus reveals the variation from population equality within a geographic piece as well as the changes that have arisen since the last redistribution.

The second table (B) lists the proposed electoral districts, their 2021 populations and their deviations from the 2022 Provincial Electoral Quota. The bottom row presents summary data for the proposed districts, including the range in deviations from the 2022 Provincial Electoral Quota.

Detailed maps of each of the proposed electoral districts with legal descriptions can be reviewed online at redistribution2022.ca via the Map Viewer tool, which allows each user to enter a specific address and locate the applicable electoral district.

Background

The Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act creates an independent non-partisan process for the review and, if necessary, revision of the federal electoral map following the most recent decennial census.

The assignment of seats to Ontario

The Chief Electoral Officer calculates the number of seats assigned to each province in accordance with the representation formula in the Constitution Act, 1867 (see redistribution2022.ca).

Pursuant to that formula, Ontario has been allocated 122 seats. There is one additional seat from the last redistribution plan prepared in 2012.

The population of Ontario and calculation of the Provincial Electoral Quota

On February 9, 2022, the Chief Statistician of Canada certified that the population of Ontario, as ascertained by the 2021 Census of Population, is 14,223,942.

The Quota, as previously described, is determined by dividing Ontario’s total population by the total number of seats. For 2022, the Quota is therefore 116,590.

The establishment of the Electoral Boundaries Commission

The Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act provides that the Chair of the Commission for the province shall be appointed by the Chief Justice of that province and the other two members of the Commission shall be appointed by the Speaker of the House of Commons.

The Order in Council dated November 1, 2021, established the Ontario Commission. Madam Justice Lynne Leitch of the Superior Court of Justice serves as Chair. Dr. Karen Bird and Dr. Peter Loewen are the other members of the Commission. Dr. Bird and Dr. Loewen are Professors of Political Science at McMaster University and the University of Toronto, respectively.

Each Commission is assigned a geography specialist who assists the Commission in drawing proposed boundaries.

The legislative rules

The Commission is to prepare a report setting out its recommended boundaries for each electoral district, a description for each district, and a name for each district.

The Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act provides that in preparing its report the Commission shall be governed by certain rules.

The population of each electoral district shall, as close as reasonably possible, correspond to the Quota.

In determining reasonable electoral district boundaries, the Commission shall consider the communities of interest or communities of identity in, and the historical pattern of, electoral districts, and a manageable geographic size for districts in sparsely populated, rural or northern regions of the province.

The right to vote is enshrined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Section 3 states that “every citizen of Canada has the right to vote in an election of members of the House of Commons or of a legislative assembly and to be qualified for membership therein.”

The Supreme Court of Canada in the leading case, Reference Re Provincial Electoral Boundaries (Sask), [1991] 2 S.C.R. 158, concluded that “the right to vote enshrined in s. 3 of the Charter is not equality of voting power per se but the right to ‘effective representation’.” Effective representation entails voter parity as the primary concern, but deviations are permitted for reasons such as “geography, community history, community interests and minority representation” in order to “effectively represent the diversity of our social mosaic.” The Court noted that the right of a Commission to depart from voter parity is circumscribed by the reasons set forth in the Act and only to the extent that the special circumstances properly permit.

However, as required by the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act, absent extraordinary circumstances, the Commission must make every effort to ensure that the population of each electoral district in the province remains within 25 per cent more, or 25 per cent less, of the Quota.

The Commission’s Rationale for Its Proposed Redistribution Plan

This Commission was committed to achieving voter parity throughout the province as much as reasonably possible, as mandated by the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act. Historical patterns, communities of interest and identity, and manageable geographic size were also considered. However, the Commission has concluded that the effect of uneven population shifts across the province over the past decade requires adjustments to many existing district boundaries in order to address patterns of voter under-representation and over-representation. This has resulted in many important changes reflected in the proposed electoral map.

The Commission had the responsibility of creating one new electoral district, given that Ontario had been allocated 122 seats.

The Commission noted that there had been significant population growth in Ontario and the Quota had increased as a result. The Commission further noted that the population growth was uneven across the province, with significant growth in some areas and only modest growth in others.

As a result of this uneven population growth over the past decade, combined with relatively wide population disparities in the 2012 map, there are substantial population inequalities across electoral districts today. The Commission has sought to remedy this.

The Commission considered—and respected where possible—the historical pattern of electoral districts. However, a redrawing of the boundaries was often required in order to rectify the grave disparities from population equality across the province. In other words, the deviations from the 2022 Quota were not reasonable.

In determining population counts, data from the 2021 Census was used. The 2021 demographic data will not be released by Statistics Canada until after the preparation of this proposal. Therefore, the Commission has utilized the available demographic data, namely, from the 2016 Census.

In creating the proposed redistribution plan, the Commission endeavoured to limit the deviation from the Quota to no more than plus or minus 10 per cent.

The Commission achieved that result in all parts of the province other than Northern Ontario, where the proposed redistribution plan envisions eight electoral districts with populations within or close to within plus or minus 15 per cent of the Quota, and one riding where the Commission found “extraordinary circumstances.” The Commission concluded that the sparse population throughout this remote and expansive area, and the Indigenous communities of interest that are predominant in this part of Northern Ontario, justified this one proposed “extraordinary circumstances” district. The eight other proposed districts in this geographic piece are all of manageable geographic size and accessible via major roadways.

In drawing the boundaries of each electoral district, the Commission referenced major geographical features such as highways, main roads, rail lines, rivers, lakes and other bodies of water, escarpments, and municipal boundaries.

The Commission concluded that the municipal boundaries could not always serve as an electoral boundary, considering the legislative rules the Commission is obliged to apply. For example, municipal boundaries could not be used as electoral boundaries for a number of mid-sized and larger cities whose populations have grown to exceed the Quota and where continued population growth is expected.

The Commission considered the location of all First Nations reserves and communities and has sought to ensure that no such community would be arbitrarily divided by an electoral district boundary.

If an electoral district included a First Nations reserve that had not participated in the census, the Commission considered the population data available from the Indian Registration System as reported by Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC) in proposing the boundary for that electoral district.

Where a community of Francophones represented a substantial percentage of an electoral district, proposed boundaries ensure that such representation is not diminished.

The Commission also strived to respect urban and rural communities of interest.

Where possible, the Commission implemented many very helpful suggestions arising from the submissions made following the invitation for early public input.

The proposed redistribution plan was compared against projected growth in population based on applying the Ontario Ministry of Finance’s Ontario Population Projections (https://www.ontario.ca/page/ontario-population-projections#section-6) (published June 23, 2021) to ensure as much as possible that the populations of the new electoral districts would not vary substantially in size over the period of time to the next census.

A number of minor technical adjustments, not affecting population, have also been made to the electoral boundaries, for example, to follow the correct alignment with roads, rail lines, rivers, ravines, etc. Boundaries have been updated where road or municipal boundaries have changed.

Finally, in proposing district names, the Commission sought to maintain the historical connection of communities to the electoral districts, while ensuring that names are inclusive, meaningful, and connote a clear sense of location or geographic reference. In some instances, the Commission has proposed Indigenous names.

Part A – Geographic pieces in which the number of districts has changed

Northern Ontario

Northern Ontario - Existing Districts

Northern Ontario - Proposed Districts

There was only modest population growth in Northern Ontario over the past decade.

The population of Northern Ontario grew by 2.8%, from 831,984 in 2011 to 855,138 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 11.2% in the same period.

The populations and deviations from the Quota for the 10 existing electoral districts in Northern Ontario are shown in Table 1A. These districts have an average 2021 population of 85,513—a figure that is 26.7% below the Quota of 116,590. While Kenora was deemed an “extraordinary circumstances” district in the 2012 electoral map, there are presently five additional districts with populations that fall more than 25 per cent below the 2022 Quota.

Given these extreme disparities from population equality and the distinctive challenges of representation in the North, the Commission discussed at great length the meaning of ’effective representation’ and the challenges of balancing the considerations set forth under the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act.

The Commission noted that in 2016 the province of Ontario established the Far North Electoral Boundaries Commission to make recommendations regarding the creation of at least one, and no more than two, new provincial electoral districts from the geography of the current provincial electoral districts of Kenora—Rainy River and Timmins—James Bay.

This Commission further noted the distinctions between its own mandate as set out in the rules prescribed by the federal Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act and the legislative mandate of the Ontario Far North Electoral Boundaries Commission. Our Commission is constrained by its mandate and by the smaller number of districts to be created.

The census population data and mandate respecting voter parity revealed the potential for a reduction of two electoral districts in Northern Ontario. The Commission considered this possibility but decided to propose a reduction of one district, thus resulting in nine districts in total, including one “extraordinary circumstances” district. The Commission acknowledged that most of the eight non-extraordinary districts in Northern Ontario have significant deviations from the Quota (see Table 1B). However, the Commission concluded that any further reduction in the number of districts in the North would imperil the principle of effective representation in this part of the province, considering its widely dispersed population and communities of interest.

The proposed redistribution plan establishes one “extraordinary circumstances” district which encompasses and reflects the exceptional nature of the far North—an isolated and geographically substantial area, in large part not accessible by road, in which the majority of the population is Indigenous. While geographically vast (520,307 square kilometers), the proposed district of KIIWETINOONG—MUSHKEGOWUK would not be the largest in Canada and, furthermore, is accessible via regular flight routes (from the Timmins hub along the James Bay coast and from hubs in Thunder Bay, Sioux Lookout and Winnipeg serving the western portion).

The eight other proposed electoral districts in Northern Ontario are of manageable geographic size, and accessible via the well-established roadway network anchored by Highways 11 and 17. Their boundaries have also been redrawn to reduce the large deviations from the Quota.

As previously noted, where a community of Francophones represented a substantial percentage of a riding, the proposed boundaries ensure that their representation is not diluted or diminished within this redistribution plan.

In addition to the proposed riding name of KIIWETINOONG—MUSHKEGOWUK, other reconfigured districts have been renamed to reflect the communities comprising them.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 1B.

City of Toronto - Proposed District

The population of Toronto grew by 6.9%, from 2,615,060 in 2011 to 2,794,356 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 11.7% in the same period.

The existing 25 electoral districts in Toronto would have an average 2021 population of 111,774—a figure that falls 4.1% below the Quota of 116,590. Furthermore, as indicated by the range of deviations relative to the 2022 Quota (40.3 percentage points), there are substantial disparities in the population size of districts across the City of Toronto. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 2A.

The Commission noted that the overrepresentation in Toronto has emerged due to uneven population growth between Toronto and surrounding areas, which is expected to continue or increase in the future.

As a result, the Commission concluded that the districts in Toronto be reduced by one.

This reduction, together with the obligation to address the wide population disparities of electoral districts within the City of Toronto, has required shifting many boundaries. The most significant proposed changes fall in the eastern portion of the City of Toronto, particularly around Scarborough, where deviations below the Quota were most pronounced. This area, broadly described as lying to the east of Victoria Park Avenue, has been reduced from six districts to five.

Proposed new electoral boundaries are formed by City of Toronto boundaries and, for the most part, follow the contours of major highways, roads, rail lines, ravines, and rivers.

Several district names have been changed to better describe their locations or reflect the neighbourhoods and communities that comprise these reconfigured districts.

With 24 districts, the average population in each district becomes 116,432. The maximum deviation from the Quota is 6%. The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 2B.

Halton, Guelph, and Wellington

Halton, Guelph, and Wellington - Existing Districts

Halton, Guelph, and Wellington - Proposed Districts

The population of Halton, Guelph, and Wellington grew by 18.4%, from 680,234 in 2011 to 805,299 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.2% in the same period.

The six electoral districts in this geographic piece would have an average 2021 population of 134,217 and an average deviation of 15.1% above the Quota. The existing districts of Oakville North—Burlington, Guelph and Milton are at the highest end for population size across the province, with populations that are, respectively, 27.7%, 23.3% and 17.5% above the Quota. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 3A.

The Commission proposes a new electoral district to resolve the underrepresentation in these districts, considering the current population and anticipated population growth.

This proposal sees five districts in the southernmost part of this geographic piece, where there were previously four. These southernmost districts are now much more balanced in population size and correspond more closely with the boundaries of Halton Region. In the northern part of this geographic piece, the revised district of WELLINGTON—HALTON picks up portions of Guelph, thus bringing the population of the district of GUELPH much closer to the provincial quotient.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 3B.

Brampton, Caledon, and Dufferin

Brampton, Caledon, and Dufferin - Existing Districts

Brampton, Caledon, and Dufferin - Proposed Districts

Brampton is another area that has seen considerable population growth over the past decade. The City of Brampton itself, with a current population of 656,480, has risen by 25.3% since 2011, with density spreading northward into Caledon and Dufferin County. This is the largest population growth of any Ontario city with a population over 100,000. Taken as a geographic piece, the population of Brampton, Caledon, and Dufferin grew by 24.8%, from 640,247 in 2011 to 799,318 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 9.9% in the same period.

The existing six electoral districts in this geographic piece would have an average 2021 population of 133,220, which falls 14.3% above the Quota. Brampton West (with 162,353 residents) currently has the highest population of all districts in the province, while Dufferin—Caledon also falls near the top. As indicated by the deviation range (49.6 percentage points) relative to the 2022 Quota, there are substantial disparities in population size between districts, particularly between the adjacent ridings of Brampton West and Brampton Centre. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 4A.

Table 4A – Brampton, Caledon, and Dufferin Existing Electoral Districts

pp = percentage points

Given its population size and anticipated growth, the Commission concluded that this area requires a new electoral district.

The proposed addition of a seventh district, together with the obligation to address the wide population disparities described above, requires significant boundary reconfigurations, especially of those districts that lay within the City of Brampton.

These proposed district boundaries all align with historical boundaries between the City of Brampton and the City of Mississauga (to the south), the Regional Municipality of Halton (to the west), and the City of Vaughan and the Township of King (to the east). However, the proposed district of BRAMPTON—MAYFIELD WEST extends northward beyond the municipal boundary to pick up a portion of the neighbouring district of Dufferin—Caledon. These revised boundaries thus reduce the population of the DUFFERIN—CALEDON district, drawing it closer to the Quota.

Pursuant to the proposed redistribution plan, these seven districts in this geographic piece all have comparable populations and manageable geographic size and respect as much as possible distinctive historical communities.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 4B.

Central Ontario, Eastern Greater Toronto Area, & Northern Greater Toronto Area

Central Ontario, Eastern Greater Toronto Area, and Northern Greater Toronto Area

We turn next to the broad region fanning north from the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) towards Georgian Bay, Lake Simcoe, and Lake Scugog. The Commission proposes the addition of a single new electoral district, LAKE SIMCOE—UXBRIDGE, which lies at the geographic centre of this region and has implications cascading outward. We present this discussion in three geographic pieces, beginning with Central Ontario, moving down to Northern GTA, then across to Eastern GTA.

Central Ontario

Central Ontario - Existing Districts

Central Ontario - Proposed Districts

The population of Central Ontario grew by 17.9%, from 625,530 in 2011 to 737,495 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.3% in the same period.

The existing six electoral districts in Central Ontario have an average 2021 population of 122,916 and fall 5.4% above the Quota. As indicated by the deviation range (38.5 percentage points), there are substantial disparities in the population size of districts. Simcoe—Grey has grown especially large, whereas other districts fall reasonably close to the 2022 Quota.

The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 5A.

Table 5A – Central Ontario Existing Electoral Districts
Electoral Districts Population – 2011 Deviation from Quota – 2012 Population – 2021 Deviation from Quota – 2022

Range (most populous to least populous) 21,691 20.42 pp 44,913 38.53 pp

pp = percentage points

The proposed new district of LAKE SIMCOE—UXBRIDGE encompasses a portion of the existing district of York—Simcoe (as shown in the illustration above), plus portions of the existing districts of Markham—Stouffville (shown below in Northern GTA), and Pickering—Uxbridge and Durham (shown below in Eastern GTA).

In addition to the new district, boundaries are redrawn to balance the populations of the other six districts. In particular, the southern boundary of the existing district of Simcoe—Grey is shifted north and this district is renamed COLLINGWOOD—BLUE MOUNTAINS. The growing community of New Tecumseth now falls in a newly named district, NEW TECUMSETH—BRADFORD.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 5B.

Northern Greater Toronto Area

Northern GTA - Existing Districts

Northern GTA - Proposed Districts

The population of Northern GTA grew by 13%, from 965,985 in 2011 to 1,091,756 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.5% in the same period.

The existing nine electoral districts in Northern GTA would have an average 2021 population of 121,306 and an average deviation of 4% from the Quota. The range between the least and most populous districts would be 43.1 percentage points. As shown in Table 6A below, there are wide population disparities among the electoral districts within this geographic piece.

Table 6A – Northern GTA Existing Electoral Districts
Electoral Districts Population – 2011 Deviation from Quota – 2012 Population – 2021 Deviation from Quota – 2022

The Commission noted that significant changes are required to ensure voter parity as much as reasonably possible. As shown in the illustrations, the new district of LAKE SIMCOE—UXBRIDGE encompasses all of the northern portion of the current Markham—Stouffville district. In the southeast corner of this geographic piece, the boundaries of the adjacent districts of MARKHAM—STOUFFVILLE, MARKHAM—THORNHILL and MARKHAM—UNIONVILLE are adjusted to bring those districts closer to population parity. Adjustments are also proposed to address the fast-growing population in the existing district of King—Vaughan. The boundary between KING—VAUGHAN and VAUGHAN—WOODBRIDGE is shifted northward to balance the populations of these adjacent ridings.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 6B.

Eastern Greater Toronto Area

Eastern Greater Toronto Area - Existing Districts

Eastern Greater Toronto Area - Proposed Districts

The population of Eastern GTA grew by 14.6%, from 582,132 in 2011 to 667,211 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.5% in the same period.

The existing five electoral districts in Eastern GTA would have an average 2021 population of 133,442 and an average deviation of 14.5% from the Quota. The absolute range between the least and most populous districts would be 25.3 percentage points. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 7A.

Population growth over the past decade in the Durham Region necessitates a number of significant boundary adjustments in this geographic piece.

The new district of LAKE SIMCOE—UXBRIDGE, as seen in the illustration, incorporates the northern portions of the existing districts of Pickering—Uxbridge and Durham. As a result of this change and of population growth in the City of Whitby (and the community of Brooklin in particular), the Commission proposes to place Brooklin in the district of PICKERING—BROOKLIN. The area constituting the southern portion of the current district of Durham is renamed BOWMANVILLE—OSHAWA NORTH.

The adjusted districts OSHAWA and WHITBY are now more compact in size, with populations much closer to the Quota. The boundaries of AJAX are unchanged.

The population of Eastern Ontario grew by 7.3%, from 624,416 in 2011 to 669,976 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.8% in the same period.

The existing six electoral districts in Eastern Ontario would have an average 2021 population of 111,663 and an average deviation of -4.2% from the Quota. The absolute range between the least and most populous districts would be 18.9 percentage points. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 8A.

Proposed changes to boundaries in this geographic piece result from the goal of achieving population equality; however, these changes are relatively minor in comparison with those of other parts of the province. The Commission endeavoured to maintain districts of manageable size and respect communities of interest.

The majority representation of the Francophone community in the existing district of Glengarry—Prescott—Russell is maintained in the proposed district of PRESCOTT—RUSSELL.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 8B.

The population of the Ottawa geographic piece grew by 15.4%, from 872,783 in 2011 to 1,006,769 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.3% in the same period.

The existing eight electoral districts in the Ottawa geographic piece would have an average 2021 population of 125,846 and an average deviation of 7.9% from the Quota. The absolute range between the least and most populous districts would be 19.7 percentage points. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 9A.

pp = percentage points

Significant redrawing was required, given the large deviations from the Quota in the suburban area comprised of the existing districts of Carleton, Nepean, and Orléans. The Commission noted that these three districts are underrepresented with populations that are, respectively, 12.7%, 13.9% and 19.5% above the Quota. The proposed boundary changes bring these districts closer to the Quota.

The most notable change concerns ORLÉANS, where an adjustment to the southern boundary, pushing it up towards the Ottawa River, will bring its population much closer to parity with surrounding districts.

Population growth in the existing districts of Nepean and Carleton necessitates further boundary changes that in turn impact the existing district of Kanata—Carleton. The Commission proposes shifting the boundaries of the proposed district of KANATA to the east to address these disparities.

The Commission has endeavoured to respect the interests of the Francophone community by ensuring that their representation in the proposed districts of ORLÉANS, OTTAWA—VANIER and OTTAWA SOUTH are not diluted.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 9B.

The population of Central East Ontario grew by 9%, from 535,322 in 2011 to 583,287 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.8% in the same period.

The existing five electoral districts in Central East Ontario would have an average 2021 population of 116,657 and an average deviation of 0.1% from the Quota. The absolute range between the least and most populous districts would be 21.3 percentage points. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 10A.

The Commission shifted boundaries to balance the population of the districts across this geographic piece. This affects most significantly the existing district of Hastings—Lennox and Addington.

The Commission also proposes shifting the boundaries of the existing district of Peterborough—Kawartha southward to ensure that the reserves of the Alderville First Nation lie within the same district and to recognize the established connection of the Township of Otonabee-South Monaghan with Peterborough. This district is renamed as PETERBOROUGH.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 10B.

The population of Mississauga has remained relatively constant, with population growth of 0.6%, from 713,443 in 2011 to 717,961 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 11.3% in the same period.

The existing six electoral districts in Mississauga would have an average 2021 population of 119,660 and an average deviation of 2.6% from the Quota. The absolute range between the least and most populous districts would be 9.5 percentage points. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 11A.

The Commission proposes minor boundary adjustments to balance the populations of the six existing districts in Mississauga. These districts remain within the municipal boundaries of the City of Mississauga, and their boundaries align with major roads, the Credit River, and the Canadian Pacific rail line.

The population of Hamilton and Niagara grew by 10.1%, from 951,295 in 2011 to 1,047,294 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.7% in the same period.

The existing nine electoral districts in this geographic piece would have an average 2021 population of 116,366, which falls just 0.2% below the Quota. However, the Commission noted the unacceptably high range of deviation (42.4 percentage points) between the least and most populous districts. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing districts are shown in Table 12A.

Within the Niagara Peninsula, the Commission noted unreasonable variations in the population size of the existing districts of Niagara Falls and Niagara West. Significant adjustments were required to achieve population equality, with resulting impacts on contiguous areas.

In the Hamilton area, the Commission made minor boundary adjustments to achieve voter parity. One resulting change was the inclusion of the urban portions of the Municipality of Grimsby within the newly named district of HAMILTON—STONEY CREEK—GRIMSBY LAKESHORE. This is a consequence of changes that were necessary in the Niagara area.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 12B.

The population of South Central Ontario grew by 13.1%, from 857,968 in 2011 to 970,608 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.5% in the same period.

The existing eight electoral districts in South Central Ontario would have an average 2021 population of 121,326 and an average deviation of 4.1% from the Quota. The absolute range between the least and most populous districts would be 28.3 percentage points. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 13A.

The Commission noted the significant deviation from the Quota in the prior redistribution in the existing district of Brantford—Brant. To address this, the Commission has reduced the geographic size of this district and proposed it be renamed BRANTFORD.

As a result, several communities have been re-assigned to surrounding districts to the west and south in order to balance populations. Notably, the community of Six Nations of the Grand River has been preserved but is now located within the district to the south, newly named as HALDIMAND—NORFOLK—SIX NATIONS.

Additionally, in the interest of achieving voter parity, a series of minor boundary changes were made to balance populations in the districts surrounding Kitchener, Waterloo, and Cambridge.

The community of Hespeler, south of the Speed River, has been added to the proposed district of CAMBRIDGE to better unify the City of Cambridge. The Township of North Dumfries has been shifted from the existing district of Cambridge and into the proposed district of KITCHENER SOUTH—NORTH DUMFRIES.

Several district names have been changed to better describe their locations or reflect communities of interest within the districts.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 13B.

Southwestern Ontario

Southwestern Ontario - Existing Districts

Southwestern Ontario - Proposed Districts

The population of Southwestern Ontario grew by 11.1%, from 782,285 in 2011 to 869,137 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.6% in the same period.

The existing seven electoral districts in this geographic piece would have an average 2021 population of 124,162 and an average deviation of 6.5% from the Quota. The absolute range between the least and most populous districts would be 24.1 percentage points. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 14A.

Table 14A – Southwestern Ontario Existing Electoral Districts

pp = percentage points

The Commission noted that the three existing and largely urban districts within the City of London are underrepresented with populations that are 9%, 18.6% and 19.5% above the Quota. Consequently, considerable redrawing was required. Recognizing the urban growth in all directions, the boundaries of these three districts are reconfigured to better balance populations with adjacent and more rural districts.

Recognizing the development in the southern part of the City of London and the northern part of the City of St. Thomas, these areas are both included in the proposed district of LONDON SOUTH—ST. THOMAS.

In the more northern part of the City of London, the boundaries of LONDON WEST and the newly named LONDON CENTRE (the existing district of London North Centre) are modestly changed. The boundaries of the existing district of London—Fanshawe are shifted to the east, and this district is renamed LONDON NORTHEAST.

In the southern portion of this geographic piece, the newly named ELGIN—MIDDLESEX—THAMES extends from Kent Bridge Road (County Road 15) in Chatham-Kent at its western edge and wraps around the City of London along the east. This district comprises portions of the existing districts of Elgin—Middlesex—London and Lambton—Kent—Middlesex.

In the northern portion of this geographic piece, the districts of PERTH—WELLINGTON and the newly named SOUTH HURON SHORES (the existing district of Huron—Bruce) are largely unchanged.

Many of the districts in this piece are renamed to better describe their locations and reflect their communities of interest.

The new deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 14B.

Southernmost Ontario

Southernmost Ontario - Existing Districts

Southernmost Ontario - Proposed Districts

The population of the southernmost part of Ontario grew by 6.1%, from 573,137 in 2011 to 608,347 in 2021. The remainder of Ontario grew by 10.9% in the same period.

The existing five electoral districts in this geographic piece would have an average 2021 population of 121,669 and an average deviation of 4.4% above the Quota. As indicated by the deviation range (23.7 percentage points), there are substantial disparities in the population size of districts. The populations and deviations from the Quota for the existing electoral districts are shown in Table 15A.

Table 15A – Southernmost Ontario Existing Electoral Districts
Electoral Districts Population — 2011 Deviation from Quota — 2012 Population — 2021 Deviation from Quota — 2022
Chatham-Kent—Leamington 111,866 5.32% 113,654 -2.52%
Essex 120,477 13.43% 134,656 15.50%
Sarnia—Lambton 106,293 0.07% 107,077 -8.16%
Windsor—Tecumseh 115,528 8.77% 122,798 5.32%

Range (most populous to least populous) 14,184 13.36 pp 27,579 23.66 pp

pp = percentage points

In this area, the Commission aimed to reduce the significant population disparities among districts. This necessitates shifting the boundary of ESSEX westward to reduce its population size. The community of Kingsville is incorporated into the proposed district of CHATHAM-KENT—LEAMINGTON—KINGSVILLE. The communities of Wallaceburg and Dresden and the Walpole Island First Nation are added to the proposed district of SARNIA—LAMBTON—BKEJWANONG. The boundaries of the proposed districts of WINDSOR WEST and WINDSOR—TECUMSEH have been adjusted to balance population equality.

The proposed boundary reconfiguration reduces the range of deviations in this area to seven percentage points. The proposed districts remain manageable in geographic size and respect as much as possible historical patterns.

The new population counts and deviations from the Quota in the proposed redistribution plan are shown in Table 15B.

Process for Public Consultation

Public consultation

Before drafting the proposed redistribution plan, the Commission welcomed public input.

Written submissions were received from interested parties, which were very helpful in the preparation of the proposal.

The Commission’s proposed redistribution plan is publicly available on the Commission’s website (redistribution2022.ca).

There is an opportunity for further public comment by written submissions or representation at the virtual and in-person meetings planned pursuant to the proposed schedule below.

The Commission looks forward to hearing from all interested parties in relation to boundaries and/or names of proposed districts either in person, virtually or in writing.

How to make a submission

The Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act requires that parties wishing to make representations to the Commission give notice in writing to the Secretary of the Commission.

A Public Hearing Participation Form is available at redistribution2022.ca and is the form of notice to be completed by those who wish to make oral representations.

The Commission has set Sunday, September 25, 2022, as the date by which the Public Hearing Participation Form is to be filed.

The Public Hearing Participation Form must state the name and address of the person who seeks to make the representation and concisely indicate the nature of the representation and the interest of the person.

The Public Hearing Participation Form, or alternatively written submissions (for those who only wish to make a submission in writing), may be filed by email or by mail to: on@redecoupage-federal-redistribution.ca

Schedule of public meetings

The Commission has scheduled in-person hearings in areas where significant changes to districts are proposed.

The Commission noted the vastness of the province (the second largest in Canada), the recent extensive use of remote hearings, the public’s ability to utilize and access remote meeting technology in their homes or community facilities, the efficiency of remote hearings, and the potential for restrictions on in-person meetings in light of the pandemic.

As a result, the Commission has also scheduled many opportunities for participation in a virtual hearing.

The Commission reiterates that a submission may be made in writing as an alternative to appearing at an in-person or virtual hearing.

Public input is important to this process.

The Commission’s rules of procedure for public submissions

Pursuant to the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act, the Commission has established the following rules to regulate its proceedings and the conduct including public hearings.

  1. All persons wishing to make an oral submission must complete the Public Hearing Participation Form described above.
  2. In the interest of transparency, the Commission will make public all written submissions that it receives in response to the proposed redistribution plan. These will be published on the Commission’s website and will include the person’s name and the date of the submission. The home address of those making written submissions will not be shared.
  3. Two members of the Commission shall constitute a quorum for the holding of a hearing.
  4. If a quorum cannot be present at a hearing, the Commission may postpone that hearing to a later date.
  5. If the Commission cannot complete hearing representations within the time allowed, the Commission may adjourn the hearing to a later date at the same place or may—taking into account the convenience of persons whose representations have not been heard or have been only partly heard—adjourn the hearing elsewhere or to a virtual hearing.
  6. At each hearing the Commission shall decide the order in which the representations are heard.
  7. The Commission may restrict the time available for oral representations if necessary to meet timing constraints.
  8. Only one person shall be heard in the presentation of any single representation, including a representation on behalf of an association or group, unless the Commission, in its discretion, decides otherwise.
  9. The link to the virtual public hearing is not public and may only be shared with participants/observers who have registered with the Commission and with members of the media.
  10. A moderator will manage the agenda, the speaking time and microphones of the participants.
  11. The use of a headset by presenters at a virtual public hearing is recommended.

The process following the public hearings

Following the receipt of submissions, the Commission will finalize its redistribution plan and submit a final report to the Chief Electoral Officer of Canada.

The report will be delivered to the House of Commons for consideration.

After Parliament has considered the report, it is returned to the Commission with any objections, the minutes, and evidence of the House of Commons committee. The Commission will consider any objections and then prepare a final report.

While the Commission will consider all submissions, the Commission is an independent body and, as such, makes all final decisions.

The Commission will deliver a final certified copy of its report to the Chief Electoral Officer of Canada.

Once the Chief Electoral Officer of Canada has received the final reports of all Commissions, a representation order is prepared describing and naming the electoral districts established by all Commissions.

The Governor in Council announces the new boundaries in a proclamation published in the Canada Gazette.

New boundaries can first be used in an election if at least seven months have passed between the date that the representation order was proclaimed and the date that Parliament is dissolved for a general election.
