2022 electoral redistribution

[edit]

The 2025 Canadian federal election will be the first election to utilize the electoral districts established following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution. The House of Commons will increase from 338 seats to 343 seats, with British Columbia gaining one seat in an increase from 42 to 43. This ensures that the the average population per constituency in British Columbia is 116,300 (according to the 2021 Canadian census), which is 8,452 more people per electoral district than the national average.[2]
