?

Vermont, I guess. PEI's politics are very provincial, and New Brunswick is Eastern Maine.

VT, which would reliably vote NDP if it were in Canada.

If Vermont were Canadian it would have 6 electoral districts/ridings - what would that look like?

Like some weird cross between Vancouver Island and rural Anglo NB/NS most likely. Just eyeballing it off of population levels:

Burlington: Lib-Green (pretending Vermont is part of the Maritimes, so NDP do poorly here.)

Caledonia-Orleans-Orange: Trump nearly won here. Safe Tory

Rutland-Bennington: See above, safe Tory

Franklin-Lamoile-Chittenden East: Suburban/rural seat. Trump did poorly but Scott did well. Maybe Lib-Tory swing?

Windsor-Windham: Scott lost here but it's rural, safe Lib

Addison-Washington: Close to the median in both presidential and gubernatorial election, probably another swing seat.

So depending on the national environmenr we get something like:

Tory: 2-4
Lib: 1-4
Green: 0-1

That could make an interesting redistricting thread  

“If (X Border State) were a Canadian province. I might do this for New England later. What is the population for a Canadian riding?

[King of Kensington]

100,000 or so.
