All Representation Acts and Federal Electoral Districts, 1860s-1950s


Representation Acts, 1870s-1950s

The Federal Electoral Districts and Their Scores on the Loosemore-Hanby Index by Decade

Federal electoral redistributions consist of four datapoints under EBRA: 1. the newest census on the previous representation order, the proposals, the preliminary reports, and the final reports which double as the newest representation order. However, only the equivalent of the first and fourth datapoint existed when Parliament readjusted electoral boundaries itself directly from the 1870s to the 1950s. This list includes the names, populations, and scores on the Loosemore-Hanby Index of all federal electoral districts from 1867 to 1952 under the British North America Act, 1867 and all iterations of the Representation Act from 1872 to 1952. Starting in the 1880s, it also includes the starting point of each decennial electoral redistribution from the latest census and previous Representation Act, as well as the comparison between the two datapoints.
