The BC EBC has not proposed any new ridings to be added to Vancouver Island, but they have recommended a wholesale re-org of the boundaries for the Capital Regional District.
As of now there are 7 CRD ridings with two pulling in populations from outside - Malahat Juan de Fuca and Saanich North and the Islands.
The proposal reduces the CRD to 6 from effectively 7.
The changes leave a number of MLAs without obvious homes
Carole James - Currently Victoria Beacon Hill. Does she run in Victoria Oak Bay? Is that not a riding that is much more Liberal?
Maurine Karaganis - Esquimalt Metchosin - Does she run in Victoria Esquimalt
David Cubberly - Saanich South is roughly the same as Saanich West.
Murray Coell - Saanich North and the Islands does not change
Rob Flemming - Victoria Hillside - no idea where
Ida Chong - Oak Bay Gordon Head - I persume in Saanich East, but maybe Victoria Oak Bay.
John Horgan - Malahat Juan de Fuca - Juan de Fuca? Or north of the Malahat?
