| Description |
This riding is in southern New Brunswick on the Bay of Fundy. It contains parts of the counties of Albert, Kings, Queens, Saint John and Westmoreland and includes St. Martins, Salisbury, Sussex and Petitcodiac, as well as part of Quispamsis. The 2001 census counted 67,729 residents. About three per cent are immigrants, and about the same number are francophones.
The service sector is the major industry here. Average family income is $55,657 and unemployment is 9.1 per cent.
This riding was created in the 2004 redistribution, when two-fifths of the Fundy-Royal riding was carved away and replaced with one-fifth of Beauséjour-Petitcodiac and smaller parts of Moncton-Riverview-Dieppe and Saint John.
Population: 67,729
Known as Fundy throughout the 2004 election, this riding's name was changed to Fundy Royal directly afterwards. The new name is said to be a more accurate reflection of the area.
