<DIV>Hi folks,</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The redistribution of the federal ridings is underway and will create the electoral districts for any elections not held before April 2014 - that's the earliest they could take effect. The process is that the Speaker of the House appoints a three-person commission, chaired by a judge, in each province and gives them the census data for the province. They then propose new boundaries and must hold public hearings on the new ridings. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This could change who your agency and your clients will work with on federal matters and, of course, give us another MP to persuade of the importance of a genuine national housing strategy to replace the "well, they can always go to a shelter if they have no place to live" mentality.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In Ontario, the hearings start October 9th and will be in Ottawa November 5th and 6th at the Hampton Inn. The proposal is to increase Ontario's ridings to 121 from 106. Ottawa will be getting one of the new ridings so adjustments are being made across the city. There does not appear to be any other way of giving your opinion to the Commission although their address is below and I suppose you could send a written submission. The hearings are the only thing included in their description of the process. I am going to contact them to clarify this.</DIV>

<DIV>The City of Ottawa currently has seven electoral districts with a total population of 879,196. The Commission decided to create one additional electoral district to accommodate the region's population growth. Some electoral districts would have remained unchanged but required minor adjustments because they were based on municipal boundaries that ceased to exist after amalgamation in 2001.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Commission proposes that the electoral district of Carleton—Mississippi Mills be renamed <SPAN class=yiv898000178allcaps>Carleton—Kanata</SPAN>. It is comprised of the current electoral district less the Town of Mississippi Mills, assigned to the proposed electoral district of Lanark—Frontenac—Hastings, and less that part south of Highways No. 7 and 417, assigned to the proposed electoral district of Nepean—Carleton. It has a population of 100,118 and is 5.74% below the provincial quota.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Commission proposes that the electoral district of <SPAN class=yiv898000178allcaps>Nepean—Carleton</SPAN> be comprised of the current electoral district, adjusted as follows: plus that portion of the current electoral district of Carleton—Mississippi Mills lying south of Terry Fox Drive and Highways No. 7 and 417; less the proposed new electoral district of Nepean. It has a population of 91,550 and is 13.81% below the provincial quota.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Commission proposes that the boundaries of the electoral district of <SPAN class=yiv898000178allcaps>Ottawa West—Nepean</SPAN> be slightly adjusted, as with the proposed electoral district of Ottawa Centre, along Baseline Road and Fisher Avenue. It has a population of 111,881 and is 5.34% above the provincial quota.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Commission proposes a new electoral district named <SPAN class=yiv898000178allcaps>Nepean</SPAN>, bounded as follows: on the north by the southern boundary of the current electoral district of Ottawa West—Nepean; on the east by the Rideau River; on the south by Brophy Drive and Bankfield Road; and on the west by the eastern boundary of the current electoral district of Carleton—Mississippi Mills, with a slight adjustment connecting Richmond Road to Robertson Road. It has a population of 104,775 and is 1.35% below the provincial quota.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Commission proposes that the boundaries of the electoral district of <SPAN class=yiv898000178allcaps>Ottawa Centre</SPAN> be slightly adjusted along Baseline Road and Fisher Avenue. It has a population of 113,619 and is 6.97% above the provincial quota.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Commission proposes that the boundaries of the electoral district of <SPAN class=yiv898000178allcaps>Ottawa South</SPAN> be adjusted along the Rideau River. It has a population of 121,894 and is 14.76% above the </DIV>
<DIV>provincial quota.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Commission proposes that the boundaries of the electoral district of <SPAN class=yiv898000178allcaps>Ottawa—Vanier</SPAN> be adjusted with the addition of a small portion of the current electoral district of Ottawa—Orléans to balance population. The population is 110,999 and is 4.51% above the provincial quota.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Commission proposes that the electoral district of <SPAN class=yiv898000178allcaps>Ottawa—Orléans</SPAN> be extended slightly into the current electoral district of Glengarry—Prescott—Russell because of the expansion of suburbs across the current boundary. The Commission believes people living in these suburbs will have a greater community of interest with Orléans. A portion of the current electoral district lying north of Regional Road 174 (Beacon Hill) is assigned to the proposed electoral district of Ottawa—Vanier in order to balance population. It has a population of 116,903 and is 10.06% above the provincial quota.</DIV></SPAN>
