Geography

The Commission reviews geographic considerations before making its preliminary proposals. Geographic considerations include existing electoral district boundaries, municipal and regional boundaries, natural geographic features (lakes, rivers, mountains, valleys, etc.), the size of an electoral district, and the accessibility of different areas (travel distances, highways, road quality, etc.). Geography can have an impact on how a region is represented in the legislature.

What geographic factors would you like the Commission to consider when drafting its preliminary proposals? Why do you think these are important?

Which option best describes your views on the size of your electoral district?

The size of my electoral district:

provides effective representation

is too small for effective representation

is too large for effective representation

is not something I’ve thought about

Demographics

When proposing boundaries the Commission will review demographic considerations, including the population of each electoral district, the rate of population growth or decline in a district, and communities of interest.

Communication and transportation

When proposing boundaries the Commission will review means of communication and transportation routes between various parts of BC. Communications considerations include internet connectivity, mail service, and telecommunications infrastructure. Transportation considerations include highway and ferry infrastructure, remoteness of the community, and ease of access.
