The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission came to town but Saint Johnners were more or less indifferent judging by the turnout.
Under proposed changes, part of Quispamsis, which is now in the Saint John riding, would become part of Fundy Royal along with the rest of the Valley.
Mr. Justice Alex Deschenes says the proposed change to the Fredericton riding, on the other hand, has generated alot of controversy and the Commission got quite an earful.
Saint John would still have the most people of any riding in the province even with losing part of it to Fundy Royal but Deschenes says there’s doesn’t seem to be a groundswell of support for Saint John to be represented by two M-P’s in Ottawa.
