Each province is assigned a population population quotient, which are reflected in their electoral districts. districts. Ontario's 95 federal ridings have a population quotient quotient of 107,642 each. The Newcastle Ratepayers Association do not see what Clarington has in common with municipalities of Hope Township either. Ratepayer Chair Murray Patterson stated, "Bottom line is, we wrote our member of parliament, and told them we felt we had nothing nothing in common with the new boundary due to the fact we are one of the fastest growing areas on Ontario." Not only are the three levels of government government opposed to the new electoral electoral boundaries, they are working together to see the changes never take effect. Local Councillor Charlie Trim also spoke out against the new federal electoral boundaries at Monday evening's council meeting. Trim said that Clarington was included in the GTA and to go east would be a total waste. Mayor Mutton told councillors councillors the M.P,'s and M.P.P.'s offices were working together on this, and there were a number number of resolutions coming to council from the municipalities' municipalities' various rate payer associations. associations. Council decided to wait till the resolutions were on the council table, so they could endorse them and add their concerns. Individuals interested in voicing their concerns at a public meeting have till October 12 to notify the Commission Secretary at 1210-150 York Street, Toronto, Ontario M5H3S5, or by e mail at www.elections.ca of their intention.
