Forty-three new ones will be added to the 45 retaining their existing names to make up On- tario's new total of 88 seats in the Commons.

Northern Ontario will get an additional seat to boost its members to 12. Representation in the southern rural districts will shrink in line with pegging seats more closely to popula- tion. The Toronto area will get three new ones, and there will be additional urban representa- tion for Ottawa, London, Ham- ilton, Oshawa, St. Catharines, Kitchener, and in the- North, Sault Ste. Marie and. Port Ar- thur, BASED ON POPULATION The Ontario commission un- der Mr. Justice E. A. Richard- son of the province's Supreme Court had the task of taking a provincial average of 70,865-- reached by dividing the 1961 census figure by the number of seats--and forming constituen- cies without varying more than 25 per cent up or down from it. The existing 85 ridings swing wildly between York - Scarbor- ough's Canadian top of 267,252 ; and rural Bruce's 29,334. Biggest riding under the re- vised setup will be Brant's 86,- 563, made up of parts of exist- ing Brantford, Brant - Haldi-| all of mand and Wentworth, which disappear as such. Smallest in population though huge in area will be Cochrane in the North with 53,166. So far as vanishing constitu- ency names are concerned, all parties feel the blow with the Liberals hardest hit. They lose 21 ridings, the Progressive Con- tervatives 16 and the New Democratic Party three. Two more NDP seats were saved from the axe when the eommission in its final report restored the names of Tim- mins and Nickel Belt after erasing them in its interim re- port last June. LED TO SHUFFLES That report was followed by public hearings at which the commissioners heard represen- tations, with the result that the new findings contain consider- Lanark and Carleton to become Lanark and Renfrew. TAKES CHOPPING Brant-Haldimand, the riding of Solicitor-Genéral Larry Pen- nell, takes one of the most severe choppings and comes out of the mill completely un- recognizable. It is split four ways with fragments going to the existing riding of Welland and to the new Haldimand- Norfolk, Hamilton - Wentworth and Brant. External Affairs Minister Paul Martin's urban-rural rid- ing of Essex East also will be crossed off with much of its urban population. going to a new Windsor - Walkerville. The rural section prill be carved up between two other ridings. A dozen new urban--or essen- tially urban -- ridings will be added. Newcomers to the list will be: - .1. Port: Arthur, now in- cluded in part of the large riding of that name, the rural part of which will . become the new Thunder Bay. "9, Sault Ste. Marie, now part of Algoma West, parts of which will be absorbed by other ridings. 3. St. Catharines, which will be lifted out of Lincoln. 4. Oshawa and Whitby, which will be cut out of former labor minister Mi- chael Starr's Ontario constit- uency. 5. Kitchener, which previ- ously was included pith the twin city of Waterloo and adjacent county area in Wat- erloo North. ships become Waterloo rid- ing. GET EXTRA SEATS In addition, there will be an) additional urban seat apiece for| London, Hamilton and Ottawa.| The national capital's new seat of Ottawa Centre would be in- terposed between the present Ottawa East and Ottawa West and include Parliament Hill. The big cluster of Metropol- itan Toronto seats would be boosted to 21 from 18, with six new ridings appearing and three existing ones vanishing. Huge York-Scarborough would take on some surrounding ter- ritory and be carved up into four constituencies. Liberal - held ork - Humber and High Park would be dropped along with Danforth, held by Reid Scott of the NDP. The Toronto area would be shaken up as drastically as anywhere in the province, and many of the ridings retaining able reshuffling of the original shuffles; The present report to Parliament is final unless the commissioners wish to act on any suggestions aggrieved MPs may make in the Commons; they do not have to. One of the major areas in- volved in a double shuffle was that now covered by Prime resemblance geographically f the present ones. For instance, former finance that riding, Parkdale, Minister Pearson's Algoma East riding. Last June the com- mission proposed to wipe out Algoma East and Algoma West and form a new Algoma which would have included the uran- jum centre of Elliot Lake but not big Manitoulin Island, which would have gone to a new Sudbury - Manitoulin .con- stituency. Now Sudbury-Manitoulin goes down the drain--some of. it go- ing. back to the resurrected Nickel Belt -- and Manitoulin returns to Algoma, which will contain enough of Mr. Pear- son's old territory to indicate it would be his home base after redistribution. Algoma _ will have 54,184 people compared with Algoma East's 54,868. Agriculture Minister J. J. Greene suffers more severely than the prime minister. His riding .of Renfrew South. is wiped out and the largest geo- graphical -- but thinly-settled- part assigned to a new one called Frontena¢ - Lennox and Addington. The remainder, in- and York South. JUGGLED NAMES report did a juggling act with names of Toronto constituen- cies. In its original report, it had dealt out St. Paul's, held by Liberal Ian Wahn.

HEES AFFECTED Among the political personal-' ities sharply affected is former Conservative trade minister George Hees, who won his way back to the Commons Nov. 8 by taking Liberal - held North- umberland. The riding is being split down the middle. The seg- ments join with parts of adjac- ent ridings to be absorbed in new constituencies called Northumberland - Durham and Prince Edward-- Hastings. The Hees farm east of Cobourg pill be in Northumberland-Durham. Durham now is held by the Liberals, simplifying Mr. Hees' choice of where to run in the next election. A sharper problem is posed for Conservatives Richard Bell, former immigration minister, and Mrs, Jean Wadds. Their ridings, respectively Carleton and Grenville - Dundas, are wiped out and most of their areas combined in a new Gren- ville - Catleton. Another riding to go will be Dufferin-Simcoe, held from its creation in 1924 until 1962 by Mrs. Wadds' father, Hon. W. Earl Rowe, now lieutenant-gov- ernor. Portions of it are par- celled out to the existing riding of Simcoe North and new Peel- Dufferin and Wellington - Grey York-Simcoe. Revenue Minister Benson's Kingston riding on Lake On- tario has a couple of townships sliced off ii and takes in return Amherst Island from Prince Edward - Lennox, becoming Kingston and 'the Islands. Commons Speaker Lucien La- moureux comes out with all his Stormont territory intact but with the name changed to Stor- mont - Dundas and with a couple of townships tacked on from. dismembered Grenville- Dundas. FOLLOW REPORT : In general, the final reappor- tionment of the rural and ur- ban - rural areas of the south- ern part of the province follows the original report with a few major exceptions. One is in the southwest cor- ner. where the commission orig- inally set up a new riding of Essex-Kent taking in parts of the present Essex South, pvhich is to disappear. The name now is changed to Kent-Essex and the town of Tilbury is moved into this riding from the new Essex. At present, Tilbury is in Kent. The boundaries of the two new London ridifigs\ere shifted sharply. The first report split the city into north and south ridings with the Thames River forming much of the dividing line. The latest ruling is for London East and London West, in line with local urgings. A slice of Waterloo City con- taining 5,436 people that had originally been assigned to the new Kitchener riding was moved to Waterloo constituency giving it a population of 80,329 against 74,535 for its neighbor. The most-populous riding to be known as Brant turned up in the first report under the name of Brantford and, with a pop- ulation of 77,508 "Addition of South Dumfries Township in- cluding the town of Paris from the vanishing Brant-Haldimand added about 9,000. A couple of riding names were changed without affecting territory.

ADDS AREA A new riding of Frontenac- Addington, taking in chunks of the present Hastings-Frontenac- Renfrew South, Kingston and Prince Edward - Lennox, be- comes Frontenac - Lennox and Addington. Another one to have been called Renfrew - Lanark beeomes Lanark and Renfrew. This takes in parts of Renfrew South, Lanark and Carleton-- all of which are disappearing-- plus some of Renfrew North. F Renfrew North will take over the big Algonquin Park from Parry Sound - Muskoka and a few townships from Nipissing to reach the Mattawa_ River, regarded as the political divid- ing line between Northern and Southern Ontario. In the North, the commission- ers in their final report made a considerably greater territor- ial shift from their earlier pro- posals than in the South. 'This stemmed largely from the com- missioners bowing to northern representations for the restora- tion of Nickel Belt (which later switched from the Liberal to NDP column). Restoring Nickel Belt to an approximation of its old shape pushed around other territory including Manitoulin. In making up the new Al- goma, the commission trans- ferred about 19,300 people to Nickel Belt and Cochrane and brought back over 20,000 with Manitoulin Island and some goma to 54,184 from 53,780. COCHRANE MEANDERS In the process, Cochrane was! from the western shore of Hud- son Bay to Lake Superior, roll- ing past Timmins, Timiska- ming, Nickel Belt and Algoma on the east and south and Thunder Bay on the prest. The neighboring town of Cop- per Cliff is re-annexed to Sud- bury. It had been dissected from that city riding in the earlier report and assigned to a new Sudbury-Manitoulin (now changed largely into Nickel sawing off Copper Cliff because of its community of interest with Sudbury. Timmins and Timiskaming pick up some extra territory but will be essentially the same ridings as now. Timmins was to' have become Cochrane East and the remainder of Cochrane would have been Cochrane West under the original report, but the commissioners finally de- cided to let the old names stand. Thunder Bay, already the largest of the new ridings, will be broadened further. Stretch- ing from the Ontario-Manitoba junction at Hudson Bay, it hits Lake Superior and the United States border on the south. A western projection goes beyond Fort Frances, though it leaves that town in Kenora - Rainy River, and from there it stretches 450 miles eastward to a line south of Kapuskasing. From corner to corner, Thun- der Bay runs 650 miles. Its population will be 54,580.
