Procedure and House Affairs committee  I see that, when the commission did its work, it balanced out all of the Brampton ridings to be between 110,000 and 119,000. It's very difficult to put 70,000 into any one of those without blowing up the map, I would say.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Very good. Mrs. Lalonde, I asked you the question about Blackburn Hamlet, and you said it's kind of a community unto its own. I have the same question on the other side with Cardinal Creek Village. How integrated is it, or is it similarly a place of its own?

Procedure and House Affairs committee  The only thing I can see there, with having gone from 139,000 in your riding with the redraw down to 126,000, is that it's equally hard to put more things back in there. The last question is for Mrs. Roberts. Were there any objections from any of the surrounding ridings on making King whole?

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Thank you. The only final comment I would offer is a comfort to Mrs. Lalonde that, if people have to drive 20 minutes to an office, compared to some of the places in Ontario where they have to drive hours to get to an office, she's already in a better position. Those are all my questions.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Thank you, Chair. I'll go back to Ms. Sahota. How many people live in Springdale?

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Right, and they pay taxes to King.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Okay. Very good. Now, Ms. Roberts, one of the other things we saw was that there were complaints in the public hearings about trying to keep municipalities together. For example, in Chatham—Kent, two of their wards were put into Sarnia—Lambton. Bkejwanong and the other ones were all in Chatham—Kent.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  That's very good. All right. I don't have any issue with that. Ms. Sahota, in the Brampton area, I could see at the beginning in looking at the population growth that it has the highest growth, so I knew that they were going to put the new riding in that area. Is Springdale a municipality or a neighbourhood?

Procedure and House Affairs committee  If you put Springdale back into your riding, what does that do to your quota?

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Thank you. I'll move on to Mrs. Lalonde. I know that Orléans already had a 20% population growth, which was one of the highest in the province. To give you perspective, Toronto is growing at 6% and the rest of rural Ontario is growing at 13%, so definitely people are moving into Orléans.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Thank you.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Thank you, Chair. Thank you to all of our witnesses for being here today. By way of background—the rest of the committee knows this—just so you know, as the lead for the Conservatives on the redistribution effort, I did sit through nearly every one of the almost 40 public hearings listening to all the testimony and reading through what people have written.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  I know that to the south your colleague is going to not object to the Barrie South—Innisfil, because Innisfil is all there, so he thinks the clarification still works. Do you see any conflict with that?

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Thank you. There was a lot of discussion about racialized communities and Muslim communities from the witnesses who came to various public hearings. Ms. Zahid, you talked about the schools and the difficulty for parents. Could you explain that further? The municipalities aren't changing, so people would have the same school boards in their areas.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  I have a couple of concerns about that group. Their web page is asking for donations, and I'm not sure whether that is allowed by Elections Canada, in terms of a redistribution. That would be a question. The other thing is that they're collecting names, addresses and phone numbers for everyone who signs up, and from a privacy point of view, I'm not sure—
