What are ridings in the Canadian political system?
A riding is a federal or provincial geographical area that is represented by an elected politician. Except for vacancies, there are 308 members of Canada's House of Commons and each member represents a different riding. All together, the 308 ridings cover every part of Canada, with no riding overlapping any part of any other riding. (In the past, there were some federal ridings that elected more than one member, but they no longer exist.) In theory, each riding contains exactly the same number of eligible voters. In practice, of course, that is not possible. Rural ridings generally have fewer eligible voters than urban ridings. Rapidly growing urban areas tend to have many more eligible voters per riding than ridings with stable populations. Ridings are given names, rather than numbers, and over the years some have been quite distinctive. Bonavista-Twillingate was one, as was Nanaimo-Cowichan-The Islands. "Riding" is a colloquial term. At the federal level, the formal term used is "Electoral District." Ridings are also found at the provincial level, and are known by a variety of names. "Electoral District" and "Electoral Division" are the most common, but "Provincial Constituency" is used in Saskatchewan and "Riding" is used in Nunavut.
