FEDERAL ELECTORAL BOUNDARIES COMMISSION FOR ONTARIO

ELECTORAL BOUNDARIES READJUSTMENT ACT

Preamble

The increase to Canada's population in the past 10 years has necessitated a change to the total number of electoral districts represented in the House of Commons from 301 to 308. The number of electoral districts in the House of Commons is derived from the formula and rules set out in sections 51 and 51A of the Constitution Act, 1867. This formula takes into account changes to provincial population, as reflected in the decennial census. Between the censuses of 1991 and 2001, the population of Ontario increased from 10,084,885 to 11,410,046. The number of electoral districts in Ontario was increased from 103 to 106.

The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for Ontario was established on April 16, 2002, by proclamation, as required under the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act (R.S.C. 1985, c. E-3, as amended). The Commission is an independent body with the responsibility to readjust the electoral boundaries in the province of Ontario after the completion of the decennial census. The Chairperson of the Commission, appointed by the Chief Justice of Ontario, is Mr. Justice Douglas Lissaman of the Superior Court of Justice. The members of the Commission, appointed by the Speaker of the House of Commons, are Janet Hiebert, Associate Professor in the Department of Political Studies at Queen's University, and Andrew Sancton, Professor and Chair of the Department of Political Science at the University of Western Ontario.

Process for Electoral Readjustment

The process for readjusting federal electoral boundaries is established by the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act. The process is as follows:

(1) The Commission proposes boundaries for electoral districts, which are contained in its proposed redistribution plan.

(2) The redistribution plan is published in newspaper advertisements that contain maps of the proposed electoral boundaries, and indicate the times and locations of public hearings. Interested individuals may appear at the hearings to express their views on the Commission's proposals, after notifying the Commission in writing of their intention to make representations. Written notification must take place within fifty-three days after the date of the publication of the last advertisement.

(3) After the public hearings, the Commission reviews its initial redistribution plan, makes revisions where appropriate, and submits its final report to the Chief Electoral Officer of Canada. The final report is required no later than April 16, 2003.

(4) The report is referred to the House of Commons and is examined by a parliamentary committee. The committee has 30 days (or longer if the House of Commons is not sitting) to discuss any objections to the report.

(5) Once Parliament has considered the report, it is returned to the Commission, along with the minutes of the House of Commons committee. The Commission then decides whether to make any modifications to its report and provides a final certified copy of its report to the Chief Electoral Officer of Canada.

(6) Once the Chief Electoral Officer of Canada has received the final reports of all Commissions, a draft order is prepared, referred to as a "representation order," describing and naming the electoral districts established by all the Commissions.

(7) Within five days of receiving the draft representation order, the Governor in Council must publicly announce the new boundaries in a proclamation, which must then be published in the Canada Gazette.

(8) The new boundaries cannot be used in an election until at least one year has passed between the date the representation order was proclaimed and the date that Parliament is dissolved for a general election.

Reasons for the Proposed Electoral Boundaries

General Notes

When readjusting electoral boundaries, the Commission is required to apply the principles contained in the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act. The Act directs the Commission to ensure that each electoral district in the province shall, as close as reasonably possible, correspond to the electoral quotient for the province. The provincial quotient for electoral districts is 107,642, which is established by dividing the population of Ontario by the number of electoral districts assigned to the province.

The Commission may depart from the quotient where necessary or desirable to:

(i) respect the community of interest or community of identity in or the historical pattern of an electoral district in the province, or

(ii) ensure a manageable geographic size for electoral districts in sparsely populated, rural or northern regions of the province.

When considering these factors, the Commission must make every effort to ensure that, except in circumstances it views as extraordinary, the population of each electoral district in the province remains within 25 per cent (plus or minus) of the electoral quotient. The upper limit of the quotient is 134,553 and the lower limit is 80,732.

The legal descriptions of the proposed electoral districts are set out at the end of these proposals. Two tables can be found at the end of the reasons that set out the names of the current and proposed electoral districts, their populations, and their variance from the provincial quotient. Maps of the proposed electoral districts are also included and illustrate the proposed electoral districts. Unless stated otherwise, all population numbers refer to the proposed electoral districts. The following is a brief explanation of the proposed changes to the electoral districts of Ontario.

Overall Approach

Population shifts, the effects of municipal amalgamations, and the establishment of new electoral districts have required substantial adjustment to the boundaries of existing electoral districts.

Many municipal amalgamations have occurred since the 1991 census. The Commission has tried as much as reasonably possible to respect the boundaries of those municipalities whose populations are consistent with the provincial quotient. Yet although the Commission prefers to retain the current electoral boundaries where possible, it cannot always accomplish this. No one electoral district can be considered in isolation. Any change to one boundary has an inherent effect on at least one adjoining electoral district.

Proposals for an electoral district are not acceptable merely on the basis that they are within the allowable 25 per cent variance from the quotient. The overarching consideration in the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act is that the population of each electoral district in the province be as close to the provincial quotient as is reasonably possible. If an electoral district contains a population that is significantly larger than the quotient it is underrepresented. Similarly, an electoral district with a significantly smaller population is overrepresented. It is virtually impossible to establish an electoral map for 106 electoral districts that reflects existing municipalities and recognizes the distinctions between urban and rural communities if electoral districts uniformly challenge the upper or lower limits of the provincial quotient.

The primary trends in population patterns in the past decade have been an increase in southern Ontario, especially in the Greater Toronto Area outside the City of Toronto, and an absolute decrease in Northern Ontario. Currently, 20 electoral districts exceed the allowable 25 per cent variance from the quotient. Ten electoral districts have populations that are smaller than the allowable variance from the quotient and 10 electoral districts have populations in excess of the maximum allowable variance from the quotient. These electoral districts vary in size from 69,901 (Timiskaming—Cochrane, which is substantially overrepresented at 35.06 per cent below the provincial quotient) to 189,934 (Brampton West—Mississauga, which is seriously underrepresented at 76.45 per cent above the quotient).

The Commission proposes, because of population shifts, to remove one electoral district from each of Northern Ontario and the Hamilton-Niagara region. The removal of these two electoral districts, in addition to the allocation of three new electoral districts for Ontario, results in the need to establish five new electoral districts. The Commission proposes that these new electoral districts be established in the suburban area outside the City of Toronto.

NORTHERN ONTARIO

The population of Northern Ontario is now 838,812 and the region currently has 11 electoral districts. Northern Ontario electoral districts were already significantly below the provincial quotient after the previous electoral readjustment. The population of Northern Ontario has not only failed to keep up with provincial growth but in eight of the 11 electoral districts it has actually declined from the level indicated in the previous census of 1991.

The average population for each electoral district in this region is 76,256. If the current number of electoral districts were retained, their average population would be well below the maximum variance of 25 per cent from the provincial quotient, according to the 2001 census information. Thus, the only way to preserve the status quo would be to depart from the general rules for establishing electoral districts, a decision that requires the Commission's judgement that extraordinary circumstances justify this treatment. The existing boundaries are not based on exceptions to the allowable variance and the Commission does not believe that since the last readjustment occurred, extraordinary circumstances have arisen that would justify deviating from the requirement that electoral districts remain within 25 per cent of the provincial electoral quotient. To retain 11 electoral districts would result in significant overrepresentation in this area.

The Act allows consideration of a manageable geographical size for electoral districts in sparsely populated, rural or northern regions. The Commission has responded to this consideration in its approach to Northern Ontario. If the electoral districts for Northern Ontario were based solely on the principle of representation by population, this region would be allocated only eight electoral districts — a decrease of three. Just as the Commission is unwilling to accept significant overrepresentation in this region, it is also unwilling to accept the drastic reduction of representation for Northern Ontario that would result from decreasing the number of electoral districts from 11 to eight.

The Commission considered several alternative approaches and believes that the best proposal reduces the region's number of electoral districts to 10 (as distinct from nine or even eight, which would be the result of a strict adherence to the quotient).

The existing electoral district of Kenora—Rainy River has a population of 78,758, which is 26.83 per cent below the provincial quotient. The Commission proposes that the southeastern boundary of Kenora—Rainy River be extended to include the entire Territorial District of Rainy River. With this change, the electoral district of KENORA—RAINY RIVER has a population of 82,681, which is 23.19 per cent below the provincial quotient.

With a population of 76,009, Thunder Bay—Atikokan is 29.39 per cent below the provincial quotient. The movement of Atikokan into KENORA—RAINY RIVER further reduces the population of Thunder Bay—Atikokan, requiring that more of the City of Thunder Bay be included in this electoral district. The Commission proposes a readjustment that simplifies the boundaries of the electoral district by following Thunder Bay Expressway, Oliver Road and John Street. It proposes that this electoral district be called THUNDER BAY.

The proposed electoral district of THUNDER BAY— SUPERIOR NORTH includes the rest of the City of Thunder Bay and follows the north shore of Lake Superior to the northern outskirts of Sault Ste. Marie, as well as the northern boundaries of the current electoral districts of Thunder Bay—Superior North and most of Algoma—Manitoulin.

The Commission proposes that the electoral district of SAULT STE. MARIE be enlarged to include the City of Sault Ste. Marie as well as several surrounding townships, from Prince to the west as far as Plummer Additional to the east.

The proposed electoral district of GREATER SUDBURY—MANITOULIN contains the southwestern part of the City of Greater Sudbury (including the communities of Dowling, Onaping, Chelmsford, Lively, Azilda, and Mikkola), the Manitoulin Islands, and that part of the current electoral district of Algoma—Manitoulin that is not in THUNDER BAY—SUPERIOR NORTH.

The existing electoral district of Timmins—James Bay remains unchanged, with the exception of an adjustment to the southeast boundary of the electoral district. The Commission proposes that the part of the District of Cochrane that is in the existing electoral district of Timiskaming—Cochrane be added to the electoral district of TIMMINS—JAMES BAY. The Commission believes that uniting the communities in this area in an electoral district, that also includes Timmins, is consistent with the area's community of interest.

The Commission proposes extending the existing electoral district of Sudbury within the City of Greater Sudbury, to the south and east between Highways No. 69 and No. 17, including the community of Coniston. With this proposed change, the electoral district of SUDBURY has a population of 83,710, which is 22.23 per cent below the provincial quotient.

The Commission proposes that the current boundaries of the electoral district of Timiskaming—Cochrane be extended to include the northern and eastern parts of the City of Greater Sudbury, (including the communities of Garson, Falconbridge, Val Caron, Val Therese, Hanmer and Capreol). As the proposed electoral district no longer contains any part of the District of Cochrane, the Commission proposes that it be renamed TIMISKAMING—GREATER SUDBURY.

The existing electoral district of Nipissing has to be enlarged. The Commission proposes extending the boundaries of the electoral district of NIPISSING to include that part of the eastern portion of the existing Parry Sound—Muskoka electoral district, following Highway No. 11. This includes the Village of Burk's Falls and several townships, the most southern of which are the Township of Perry and the Town of Kearney.

With the changes made to Nipissing, the electoral district of PARRY SOUND—MUSKOKA has to be increased. The Commission proposes extending the boundaries to the north and west, to include the municipalities of French River, St.-Charles and Killarney, and nearby unorganized territories. The southern boundary of the electoral district, adjoining the current electoral district of Haliburton—Victoria—Brock, is adjusted to respect current municipal boundaries.

EASTERN ONTARIO

The electoral district of RENFREW—NIPISSING— PEMBROKE remains unchanged, with a population of 96,421, which is 10.42 per cent below the provincial quotient. The Commission believes that this variance is appropriate for a large geographical electoral district that adjoins Northern Ontario.

OTTAWA

The City of Ottawa has a population of 774,072. Significant changes were required to the boundaries of the seven electoral districts in this area, resulting from the Commission's decision to respect the municipal boundaries following the amalgamation in 2001, which merged all of the municipalities within the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton.

The electoral district of OTTAWA CENTRE is unchanged. It has a population of 114,032 and is 5.94 per cent above the provincial quotient.

The Commission proposes minor adjustments to OTTAWA—VANIER, including an extension of the eastern boundary to include all points west of Green's Creek.

The proposed electoral district of OTTAWA—ORLÉANS includes all of the City of Ottawa that is east of Green's Creek and north of Highway No. 417.

In the electoral district of OTTAWA SOUTH, the Commission proposes to remove the area that is southwest of Hunt Club Road and Airport Parkway.

The proposed electoral district of OTTAWA—RIDEAU includes all of the southern part of the City of Ottawa and follows Highway No. 417 west to the former boundary of Kanata.

The Commission proposes that the remainder of the current electoral district of Ottawa West—Nepean, as well as that part of the city that is north of West Hunt Club Road, be included in the electoral district of OTTAWA—NEPEAN.

The proposed electoral district of OTTAWA—KANATA includes all parts of the existing electoral district of Lanark— Carleton that are within the new boundaries of the City of Ottawa, as well as the northwest part of the existing electoral district of Ottawa West—Nepean.

EASTERN ONTARIO OUTSIDE OTTAWA

The Commission's decision to keep the seven electoral districts in the City of Ottawa entirely within the new municipal boundaries of Ottawa has required substantial readjustments to the electoral boundaries of electoral districts in Eastern Ontario.

The area of the former Township of Cumberland, currently in the electoral district of Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, has become part of the amalgamated City of Ottawa. The Commission's proposal to respect the new municipal boundaries of Ottawa has decreased the population of a region that is already significantly below the provincial quotient. To compensate for this loss of population it is necessary to undertake a substantial readjustment to the southwestern part of the electoral district of GLENGARRY—PRESCOTT—RUSSELL. The amalgamation of the Townships of Charlottenburgh and Lancaster and the Village of Lancaster also warrant a readjustment to the boundaries, so as not to divide this new Township of South Glengarry.

The adjustment to the southwestern boundary of the existing electoral district of Glengarry—Prescott—Russell reduces the population of Stormont—Dundas—Charlottenburgh, which is already 12.43 per cent below the provincial quotient. To increase the population to an appropriate level, the Commission proposes extending the western boundary of the electoral district to include the Townships of North Grenville and Edwardsburgh/Cardinal, and calling this electoral district STORMONT—DUNDAS—GRENVILLE.

The Commission's decision to respect Ottawa's municipal boundaries has had a particularly stark effect on the population of the existing electoral district of Lanark—Carleton. With the densely populated Kanata removed from this electoral district, the remaining electoral area must be enlarged to increase its population to an appropriate level. The Commission proposes adding all of Lanark County and portions of the counties of Frontenac, Lennox and Addington, and Hastings. The Commission proposes to recognize the natural geographical characteristics of this proposed electoral district, by naming it LANARK AND THE LAKES.

The current electoral district of Leeds—Grenville, with a population of 96,606, is more than 10.25 per cent below the provincial quotient. The ripple effect of adjusting the eastern electoral boundaries has further eroded the population of this electoral district. Proposed readjustments to this electoral district include the additions of the Township of South Frontenac and that part of the City of Kingston that is north of Highway No. 401 and east of the Cataraqui River. The Commission proposes that this electoral district be named LEEDS—FRONTENAC.

No changes have been proposed to KINGSTON AND THE ISLANDS, which has a population of 112,872, and is 4.86 per cent above the provincial quotient.

Significant changes are proposed to the existing electoral district of Hastings—Frontenac—Lennox and Addington, stemming from the cumulative impact of respecting the municipal boundaries of Ottawa. The resulting need to change the boundaries of the existing electoral district of Lanark—Carleton has had a direct impact on the electoral district of Hastings—Frontenac—Lennox and Addington. The Commission is proposing a very different electoral district, comprising the remaining parts of Hastings—Frontenac—Lennox and Addington, and also taking in parts of the current electoral districts of Peterborough, Northumberland, and Prince Edward—Hastings. The Commission proposes that this electoral district be called NORTHUMBERLAND—QUINTE.

The population of the current Peterborough electoral district is 112,111. The Commission proposes reducing this by moving the Township of Havelock-Belmont-Methuen into the proposed electoral district of NORTHUMBERLAND—QUINTE. The remaining boundaries are unchanged, except as necessary to adapt to the amalgamation that produced the township of Cavan-Millbrook-North Monaghan. The electoral district of PETERBOROUGH has a population of 106,408 and is 1.15 per cent below the provincial quotient.

The current electoral district of Prince Edward—Hastings is 13.66 per cent below the provincial quotient. Several townships, some in this electoral district and some in the neighbouring electoral district of Northumberland, have amalgamated to form the City of Quinte West. Respecting this new municipal boundary reduces the population of this electoral district. To increase the population to an appropriate level, the Commission proposes that the electoral district of PRINCE EDWARD—HASTINGS now include the Town of Greater Napanee and the Township of Loyalist.

The Commission proposes a readjustment to the current electoral district of Haliburton—Victoria—Brock that would remove the Township of Brock, and unite it with neighbouring communities in the Regional Municipality of Durham. Minor changes have been proposed to the northern and southern boundaries to reflect municipal boundary changes. The Commission proposes that this electoral district be called KAWARTHA LAKES— HALIBURTON. These changes would give this proposed electoral district a population of 97,406, which is 9.51 per cent below the provincial quotient.

DURHAM REGION

The existing electoral districts of Pickering—Ajax—Uxbridge and Whitby—Ajax require significant adjustments because they are 27.75 per cent and 19.07 per cent above the provincial quotient respectively. The population of this region has become too large to constitute only four electoral districts and yet is not large enough to warrant five electoral districts. For this reason, the Commission proposes that one electoral district within Durham Region be extended eastward to include the towns of Port Hope and Cobourg and the Township of Hamilton.

The Commission proposes an electoral district that includes all of the Town of Whitby. To ensure the electoral district has sufficient population, the Commission proposes that the northern part of the existing electoral district of Oshawa be included, and that the electoral district be called WHITBY—OSHAWA. The Commission believes that this boundary establishes a more viable linkage between Oshawa and Whitby. This change also requires additional adjustments to the western boundary of the electoral district of OSHAWA, which has a population of 111,557.

The population of the Town of Ajax is 73,753. By adding to it the eastern portion of the City of Pickering east of Dixie Road, the Commission proposes that the electoral district of AJAX—PICKERING be established.

The Commission proposes that the remaining portion of the electoral district of Pickering—Ajax—Uxbridge be united with the remaining municipalities in the Durham Region to form the electoral district of PICKERING—DURHAM.

The proposed electoral district of CLARINGTON— NORTHUMBERLAND extends from the electoral district of Oshawa to the Township of Hamilton and includes the towns of Port Hope and Cobourg.

SIMCOE AND YORK REGIONS

SIMCOE REGION

The electoral district of SIMCOE NORTH remains almost unchanged except for an adjustment to take into account the new municipal boundary between the townships of Springwater and Oro-Medonte.

The portion of Simcoe County within the existing electoral district of Simcoe—Grey is sufficiently populous to constitute an electoral district on its own. The Commission proposes that it be called SIMCOE SOUTH.

The City of Barrie, with a population of 103,710, is also large enough to constitute its own electoral district of BARRIE.

This leaves the towns of Innisfil and Bradford West Gwillimbury, which adjoin Cook's Bay. The Commission proposes uniting these towns, and that part of the Township of King that is north of Highway No. 9, with the towns of Georgina and East Gwillimbury, which also surround Cook's Bay, to form the electoral district of YORK NORTH—SIMCOE. The Commission believes that the community of interest around Cook's Bay supports this adjustment.

YORK REGION

The population of the York Region not included in YORK NORTH—SIMCOE is sufficient for six electoral districts.

The electoral districts in this region are too populous for most to remain unchanged. The existing electoral districts of Vaughan—King—Aurora (at 52.90 per cent above the provincial quotient), Oak Ridges (at 61.07 per cent above) and Markham (at 32.30 per cent above the quotient) require substantial changes to existing boundaries.

The current electoral district of Thornhill has a population of 116,840. Although the population is 8.54 per cent above the provincial quotient, it constitutes a viable region and the Commission sees no reason to change the boundaries of this electoral district.

The part of the City of Vaughan, not included in THORNHILL, is sufficient to create the new electoral district of VAUGHAN, with a population of 112,049.

The part of the Township of King that is south of Highway No. 9, the Town of Newmarket, and the portion of Aurora that is west of Yonge Street, are united in the proposed electoral district of NEWMARKET—KING—AURORA, which has a population of 109,870 and is 2.07 per cent above the provincial quotient.

The Town of Richmond Hill is too large to constitute a single electoral district. The Commission proposes that the portions of Richmond Hill that are south of Gamble Road and west of Yonge Sreet, and south of Elgin Mills Road and east of Yonge Street constitute the electoral district of RICHMOND HILL.

The population of the existing electoral district of Markham, at 142,408, is too large to constitute one electoral district. The Commission proposes that the portion that is south of 16th Avenue, west of McCowan Road, and south of Highway No. 7, be excluded from the existing electoral district of Markham and joined with the rest of the unassigned portions of York Region to form the electoral district of OAK RIDGES—MARKHAM. The remainder of the existing electoral district of Markham has a population of 112,093. The Commission proposes that it constitute the electoral district of MARKHAM—UNIONVILLE.

THE CITY OF TORONTO

According to the census in 2001, the population of the City of Toronto is 2,481,494. It currently comprises 22 electoral districts having an average population of 112,795, or 4.78 per cent above the provincial quotient. Considering that this is a densely populated urban area, the Commission accepts this average variation and does not propose to change the total number of electoral districts within the City boundaries. In fact, there are seven electoral districts within the City of Toronto for which the Commission proposes no boundary changes at all.

The total population of the three electoral districts west of the Humber River (the former City of Etobicoke) is 338,117. Their average population is 112,706, a figure that is appropriate. The existing electoral district of ETOBICOKE—LAKESHORE has a population 113,914 and does not require any changes.

To reduce the population of the current electoral district of Etobicoke North from 118,583, the Commission proposes moving the area that is south of Dixon Road in the proposed electoral district of ETOBICOKE CENTRE. The effect of this change is to simplify the boundary between the proposed electoral districts of ETOBICOKE NORTH and ETOBICOKE CENTRE such that, from west to east, it is Highway No. 401 and Dixon Road.

The total population of the five electoral districts east of Victoria Park Avenue (the former City of Scarborough) is 593,297. Their average population is 118,659, or 10.23 per cent above the provincial quotient. The Commission carefully considered the acceptability of this variance. It was not realistic to add an electoral district to this area, because the population is too low. The only alternative would have been to propose at least one electoral district whose territory would have crossed Victoria Park Avenue, a decision that would have had considerable impact on electoral districts on both sides of what has been a traditional boundary. The Commission decided against making a proposal that would have involved the crossing of Victoria Park Avenue.

The Commission proposes maintaining the existing boundaries of SCARBOROUGH—AGINCOURT (population 114,411), SCARBOROUGH CENTRE (population 123,089) and SCARBOROUGH SOUTHWEST (population 113,616). To reduce the population of the existing electoral district of Scarborough—Rouge River from 126,382, the Commission proposes moving the boundary northward between SCARBOROUGH—ROUGE RIVER (population 119,115) and SCARBOROUGH EAST (population 123,066) such that the area bounded by Markham Road (on the west), Highway No. 401 (on the south), Collins Road (on the east) and Sheppard Avenue (on the north) is now included in SCARBOROUGH EAST.

The population of the remaining territory of the City of Toronto (the former cities of Toronto, North York, and York, and the Borough of East York) has a population of 1,550,080. The average population of the 14 electoral districts contained therein is 110,720.

The population of the current electoral district of Toronto Centre—Rosedale is 122,882. Although the Commission is proposing two electoral districts east of Victoria Park Avenue with higher populations (SCARBOROUGH CENTRE and SCARBOROUGH EAST), the Commission considers that the population of the existing Toronto Centre—Rosedale is unacceptably high, especially because the populations of some nearby electoral districts — notably, Toronto—Danforth (103,153), Trinity—Spadina (103,368), and Davenport (103,618) — are significantly lower. The Commission proposes that the Toronto Islands and the area bounded by University Avenue (on the west), College Street (on the north) and Yonge Street (on the east) be removed from Toronto Centre—Rosedale and added to TRINITY—SPADINA. On the north, the Commission proposes that the Governor's Bridge area (population 388) be added to TORONTO CENTRE—ROSEDALE. This area was part of the former Borough of East York. Now that the municipal boundary in this area no longer exists, the Commission considers that Governor's Bridge is appropriately joined with TORONTO CENTRE—ROSEDALE.

With the addition of the area east of University Avenue from the current electoral district of Toronto Centre—Rosedale, the population of TRINITY—SPADINA is significantly increased. The Commission proposes that the territory bounded by Ossington Avenue (on the east), Dundas Street (on the south), Dovercourt Road (on the west) and the Canadian Pacific Railway on the north) be moved to the proposed electoral district of DAVENPORT. South of Dundas Street and north of the Gardiner Expressway, the Commission proposes that the westerly boundary of TRINITY—SPADINA be moved westward to Dufferin Street, thereby affecting the boundaries of the current electoral districts of Davenport and Parkdale—High Park.

As noted above, the Commission proposes that the population of DAVENPORT be increased by adding territory on the east from the existing electoral district of Trinity—Spadina. The Commission also proposes a northern addition to DAVENPORT, i.e. the territory east of Keele Street and south of Eglinton Avenue that is within the existing electoral district of York South— Weston. However, the Commission proposes moving all of the territory south of Dundas Street currently within the current electoral district of Davenport to TRINITY—SPADINA and PARKDALE—HIGH PARK. The Commission proposes that, between Dundas Street and the Gardiner Expressway, the easterly boundary of PARKDALE—HIGH PARK be Dufferin Street. The net effect of this change is to increase slightly the population of PARKDALE—HIGH PARK to 110,639.

For YORK SOUTH—WESTON, the Commission proposes only the change referred to in the previous paragraph. Its population is reduced to 106,974.

The Commission sees no reason to change the boundaries of EGLINTON—LAWRENCE (population 111,237), ST. PAUL'S (population 108,696), and DON VALLEY WEST (population 115,539).

As noted above, the Commission proposes that the Governor's Bridge area be moved from the current electoral district of Toronto—Danforth to TORONTO CENTRE—ROSEDALE. Because the population of Toronto—Danforth is already low at 103,153, the Commission proposes adding territory to the east from the current electoral district of Beaches—East York. The boundary between the two is simplified by using Coxwell Avenue throughout. Given that the municipal boundary between the current electoral districts of Beaches—East York and Don Valley East no longer exists, the Commission proposes that the new boundary between BEACHES—EAST YORK and DON VALLEY EAST be Sunrise Avenue.

The population of the existing electoral district of Don Valley East is high at 116,963. Its population can be reduced by using Finch Avenue as the only northerly boundary. The population of DON VALLEY EAST becomes 110,373.

The population of the existing electoral district of Willowdale is already high at 118,375. As noted above, the Commission proposes simplifying the northerly boundary of DON VALLEY EAST by adding to Willowdale the territory north of Finch Avenue in the current electoral district of Don Valley East. To reduce the population of Willowdale, the Commission proposes that the territory north of the Hydro line (that is north of Finch Avenue) and west of Yonge Street be moved to YORK CENTRE. The population of WILLOWDALE becomes 109,258.

The population of the current electoral district of York Centre is increased by the territory added to it from the current electoral district of Willowdale. However, because the population of the current electoral district of York West is only 103,616, the current boundary between York West and York Centre must be adjusted. At the south, the Commission proposes that the boundary continue to be Jane Street, as far north as Sheppard Avenue. Then it would go west to Black Creek, north to Grandravine Drive, and east to Keele Street, which would be the boundary between the two electoral districts right up to the northerly boundary of the City of Toronto. The population of YORK CENTRE is 113,420 and that of YORK WEST is 110,384.

HALTON AND PEEL

The regional municipalities of Halton and Peel have been growing rapidly and require both new electoral districts and significant restructuring of the current electoral boundaries. As an indication of the scale of population growth, it should be noted that the current electoral districts of Brampton West— Mississauga and Halton have populations that are respectively 76.45 and 43.10 per cent above the provincial quotient.

PEEL

The Regional Municipality of Peel has a population of 988,948, an appropriate number for nine electoral districts having an average population of 109,883. The population of the two cities of Brampton and Mississauga is 938,353. This is too high for eight electoral districts and too low for nine. This explains why, in the Commission's view, Caledon must be linked with the rest of the Regional Municipality of Peel.

The Commission proposes that the Town of Caledon (population 50,595) be united with the eastern portion of the City of Brampton to form BRAMPTON EAST—CALEDON.

The unassigned population in the City of Brampton is 268,601, too high for two electoral districts and too low for three. This means that the Commission must propose the creation of electoral districts that cross the municipal boundary between Brampton and Mississauga. The Commission proposes two such electoral districts: BRAMPTON WEST—MISSISSAUGA and MALTON—PEEL CENTRE. In both these cases, the southerly boundary is Highway No. 401. The Commission proposes the creation of one electoral district, BRAMPTON CENTRE, that is entirely within the City of Brampton.

In the City of Mississauga south of Highway No. 401, the Commission proposes that no changes be made to the boundaries of MISSISSAUGA EAST (population 108,459). However, because the current electoral districts of Mississauga South and Mississauga West have populations of 101,647 and 150,764 respectively, the boundaries in this area of Mississauga have to be significantly restructured. The Commission proposes the electoral districts of MISSISSAUGA—PORT CREDIT, MISSISSAUGA SOUTH, MISSISSAUGA WEST, and MISSISSAUGA CENTRE. (For details of the proposed boundaries, see the accompanying maps and legal descriptions.)

HALTON

The population of the Regional Municipality of Halton is 375,229, too high for three electoral districts and too low for four.

The current electoral district of Burlington has a population of only 101,993. However, it does not include the Aldershot section of the city. In the Commission's view, Aldershot likely has a stronger community of interest with the rest of Burlington than with the City of Hamilton, to which it is currently attached. In any event, since the electoral district of Burlington has insufficient population, Aldershot is a natural addition. The population of the proposed electoral district of BURLINGTON is 117,093.

The current electoral district of Oakville has a population of only 104,103. The Commission proposes to extend its boundaries northward into the existing electoral district of Halton by including the territory bounded by the City of Mississauga on the west, Upper Middle Road on the south, Trafalgar Road on the west, and Dundas Street on the north. The population of the proposed electoral district of OAKVILLE is 114,035.

The population of that part of the Regional Municipality of Halton not already assigned to BURLINGTON and OAKVILLE is 144,101, which is far too high for a single electoral district. In the Commission's view, its only alternative is to propose that a northerly portion of the region be attached to an electoral district to the north. The Commission therefore proposes that the Georgetown and Acton areas of the Town of Halton Hills be included in the electoral district of DUFFERIN— WELLINGTON—HALTON. The Commission proposes that the remaining portions of the Regional Municipality of Halton (including all of the Town of Milton) form the electoral district of HALTON, with a population of 107,911.

SOUTHWESTERN ONTARIO

WINDSOR AND CHATHAM-KENT

Despite the fact that the populations of current electoral districts in this area are quite high, the Commission sees no reason to disrupt existing communities of interest by making major changes.

The existing electoral district of Windsor—St. Clair includes only part of the new Town of Tecumseh. The Commission proposes to include all of Tecumseh within this electoral district and renaming it WINDSOR—TECUMSEH, bringing its population to 116,466. With a population of 117,041, WINDSOR WEST requires no change.

Except for the loss of part of Tecumseh to WINDSOR— TECUMSEH, the electoral district of ESSEX remains unchanged, with a population of 114,330.

With a population of 107,341, the City of Chatham-Kent is ideally suited to constitute an electoral district on its own. However, the Town of Leamington has too large a population (27,138) to be included within ESSEX. There is no alternative but to keep Leamington to an electoral district based in Chatham-Kent. Consequently, the Commission proposes that the electoral district of CHATHAM-KENT—ESSEX continue with its existing boundaries (population 106,144).

THE SARNIA AREA

The existing electoral district of Sarnia—Lambton has a population of only 88,331, or 17.94 per cent below the provincial quotient. Because this is an urbanized electoral district in southern Ontario, the Commission is not willing to accept that this level of overrepresentation is justified. Consequently, it proposes adding the municipalities of Plympton-Wyoming, Petrolia, Oil Springs, and Inniskillen to SARNIA—LAMBTON such that its population becomes 104,556.

The proposed addition to SARNIA—LAMBTON means that the existing electoral district of Lambton—Kent—Middlesex has insufficient population. In the Commission's view, this problem can best be remedied by including in this electoral district all of the municipalities (except Thames Centre), thereby creating the electoral district of MIDDLESEX—KENT—LAMBTON with a population of 105,291.

LONDON, ELGIN, AND THAMES CENTRE

The three electoral districts wholly contained within the City of London (LONDON WEST, LONDON NORTH CENTRE, and LONDON—FANSHAWE) have populations that are extremely close to the provincial quotient. The Commission sees no reason to propose changes.

The existing electoral district of Elgin—Middlesex—London now contains parts of two recently amalgamated municipalities (Middlesex Centre and Thames Centre) within Middlesex County. The Commission proposes that all of Middlesex Centre be allocated to MIDDLESEX—KENT—LAMBTON and that all of Thames Centre be allocated to ELGIN—MIDDLESEX—LONDON.

OXFORD, BRANT, HALDIMAND AND NORFOLK

No change is required in the Oxford electoral district. The electoral district of OXFORD comprises the entire County of Oxford.

The existing electoral district of Brant currently comprises only part of the County of Brant, which, as a result of amalgamations, is now itself a single municipality. The Commission does not wish to divide this new municipality. It also proposes that all of the Indian reserves in the area all be attached to the new electoral district of BRANT, which has a population of 118,580.

The Commission proposes that the electoral district of HALDIMAND—NORFOLK comprise the cities of Haldimand and Norfolk. Both are the result of recent municipal amalgamations, so the new electoral district includes the territory of the former Town of Dunnville that is currently in the electoral district of Erie—Lincoln. The proposed new electoral district of HALDIMAND—NORFOLK no longer includes the territory of the former Burford Township (in Brant County), or the Indian reserves in the area, all of which is proposed to be in BRANT.

HURON, BRUCE, AND GREY

The existing electoral district of Huron—Bruce has a population of only 93,460, which is 13.18 per cent below the provincial quotient. This shortfall can be addressed by adding those parts of the recently amalgamated municipalities of Brockton and South Bruce that are not already contained within the electoral district. The proposed electoral district of HURON—BRUCE has a population of 104,063.

The territory added to HURON—BRUCE is currently within the electoral district of Bruce—Grey—Owen Sound. The Commission proposes that all of the remaining municipalities within Grey County be added to this electoral district to create the new electoral district of GREY—BRUCE—OWEN SOUND.

PERTH, WELLINGTON, WATERLOO, AND DUFFERIN

As noted above, all of the municipalities within the County of Middlesex have already been allocated to the proposed electoral districts of MIDDLESEX—KENT—LAMBTON, and ELGIN—MIDDLESEX—LONDON. This means that the existing electoral district of Perth—Middlesex has to be significantly restructured. The Commission proposes that the municipalities of Minto, Wellington North, and Mapleton (all within Wellington County) be combined with Perth County to create the new electoral district of PERTH—WELLINGTON.

The current electoral districts of Waterloo—Wellington, Kitchener—Waterloo, Kitchener Centre, and Cambridge all have populations significantly above the provincial quotient. By removing the municipalities of Minto, Wellington North, and Mapleton from Waterloo—Wellington (as described above), the population of the area is reduced such that it can comfortably comprise four proposed electoral districts.

The Commission proposes that the electoral district of WATERLOO—WELLINGTON be expanded within the City of Kitchener so as to include that part of the city currently within the electoral district of Cambridge as well as the part that is south of the Conestoga Parkway and west of Shelly Avenue (i.e. Alpine Village) and currently within the electoral district of Kitchener Centre. The population of WATERLOO—WELLINGTON is 110,454.

The proposed electoral district of CAMBRIDGE comprises the City of Cambridge and the Township of North Dumfries. Its population is 119,141.

Because the Commission proposes to remove some of its territory in the south, the Commission also proposes that the existing electoral district of Kitchener Centre be extended north of Highland Road West to include the neighbourhoods of Beechwood Forest and Highland West. The population of the proposed electoral district of KITCHENER CENTRE is 116,821. Except for the removal of the territory north of Highland Road West, KITCHENER—WATERLOO is proposed to remain as is, with a population of 116,359.

The population of the existing electoral district of Guelph—Wellington is 122,601, or 13.90 per cent above the provincial quotient. In the Commission's view, this level of underrepresentation in this area of the province is unjustified. The Commission proposes to address the problem by attaching the Township of Puslinch to part of the City of Hamilton to create the electoral district of HAMILTON—PUSLINCH. The population of GUELPH—WELLINGTON is 117,344.

The population of Dufferin County is 51,013. By adding to it the Town of Erin in Wellington County and the northern portion of the municipality of Halton Hills (i.e. the Georgetown and Acton areas), the Commission proposes the electoral district of DUFFERIN—WELLINGTON—HALTON with a population of 98,255.

THE NIAGARA PENINSULA AND HAMILTON

Proposed changes in the boundaries of neighbouring electoral districts, relatively low rates of population growth, and the elimination of former municipal boundaries due to the creation of the new City of Hamilton require that substantial changes be made to electoral districts in this area, of which there currently are nine. Seven have populations below the provincial quotient and the other two are only slightly above. The net effect of the Commission's proposals is to remove one electoral district from this area.

The proposed electoral district of NIAGARA—FORT ERIE comprises the City of Niagara Falls and the Town of Fort Erie.

The proposed electoral district of ST. CATHARINES— NIAGARA-ON-THE-LAKE comprises the territory of the current electoral district of St. Catharines combined with the Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake.

The proposed electoral district of WELLAND comprises that part of the City of St. Catharines currently within the electoral district of Niagara Centre and the municipalities of Thorold, Welland, Port Colborne, and Wainfleet.

The remaining municipalities within the Regional Municipality of Niagara — Pelham, Lincoln, West Lincoln, and Grimsby — are not sufficiently populous to form a single electoral district. They are therefore combined with more suburban and rural parts of the City of Hamilton above the Niagara Escarpment to constitute the proposed electoral district of HAMILTON—LINCOLN.

Except to the south, the boundaries of the existing electoral district of Hamilton Mountain are defined by the municipal boundary between the old City of Hamilton and the former Township of Glanbrook. As the result of the creation of the new City of Hamilton, this municipal boundary on the south no longer exists. The Commission therefore proposes a new southerly boundary for HAMILTON MOUNTAIN, which can be seen in the accompanying maps and legal descriptions. On the northwest, the Commission proposes that the area east of Garth Street above the Escarpment be removed from the existing electoral district of Hamilton West and added to HAMILTON MOUNTAIN.

The proposed electoral district of HAMILTON EAST comprises all of the City of Hamilton below the Escarpment and east of Ottawa Street. Its population is 115,704.

The proposed electoral district of HAMILTON WEST consists mainly of that part of the City of Hamilton below the Escarpment between Ottawa Street on the east and Highway No. 403 on the west. Above the Escarpment, it includes the area west of Garth Street and east of Highway No. 403 and north of the Lincoln Alexander Parkway.

The remaining westerly portion of the City of Hamilton (including the former municipalities of Ancaster, Dundas, and Flamborough) has a population of only 104,362. The Commission proposes adding the Township of Puslinch (population 5,885) from Wellington County to this part of Hamilton to create the electoral district of HAMILTON—PUSLINCH.
