Supreme Court Blocks Quebec's Election Map Freeze
Description
The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled against Quebecs attempt to freeze election map boundaries, paving the way for changes in the Gaspé Peninsula, east-end Montreal, and the creation of new ridings in the Laurentians, Lanaudière, and Centre-du-Québec. The ruling, which upholds the constitutionality of the independent commissions plan, has sparked concerns about losing local voices in remote areas. Premier Christine Fréchette has announced a new bill to protect at-risk ridings.
