Parliament Hill debate on redistribution in Commons
The Commons this week focused on redistribution with a bill in the Prime Minister's name. It proposes ten provincial commissions with a Chief Justice, party leaders, and Mr Castonguay as Commissioner, and uses a 20 percent tolerance to adjust representation. Winnipeg should gain seats while some rural ridings may vanish. Manitoba leads ARDA driven rural development, but federal delays hinder progress. Ontario license No 2000 and Prime Minister No 2040 noted on Diefenbaker and Pearson cars.
