Canada Demographics Maps Thread (by federal riding)

Given its demographics, one would expect Edmonton-Strathcona to be a Liberal-Conservative marginal, not an NDP-Conservative marginal (and vice-versa for Edmonton Centre, although that won't be marginal this year).

Not necessarily. In many instances, lower income people vote Liberal while people with degrees vote NDP, as is the case for Edmonton as it appears. Same goes for Ottawa and Toronto.

Saskatchewan, like Quebec and BC publishes stats by provincial constituency. However, Manitoba doesn't seem to do so (communities only, IIRC), Alberta is Alberta, and Newfies live up to the stereotype.

Here is average (not median, apparently) HH income in Saskatoon and Regina. (https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/GALLERY/2007_19_04_09_8_18_15.png



If anybody has a blank map of the new BC constituencies, I need to do some maps. So please, get me a map!

I will be making one soon

Interesting to see that the one Mississauga riding has basically inner-city demographics.

Mississauga East-Cooksville, I think. It's the most Liberal, anyways.

If that is an attempt to make fun of Canada, it is a fail.

The Pundits' Guide has just set up a totally awesome database that ranks all the ridings in the country by various demographic features - a great procrastination tool for those interested in the topic of this thread...

I made a few religious maps in the gallery, after I saw this. I am willing to take requests.

Interesting; I was under the assumption that Asians in BC voted Liberal.

They used to, but they are Socially Conservative.

A lot of the Chinese voting Liberal, I think, has to do with the tradition of voting Liberal provincially.

Maybe that also explains the East Asians (I think) in the other Vancouver suburbia voting NDP federally, since the NDP isn't really the immigrant party, in, say, Ontario or Quebec.

Plus, they are used to Social Democratic Parties from back home. They don't vote NDP in Ontario, because they all live in Peel Region, which is anti-NDP suburbia.
