Drawing the map : equality and efficacy of the vote in Canadian electoral boundary reform / David Small, editor.: Z1-1989/2-41-11E-PDF
"At the heart of the Canadian system of representative government are questions of redistribution — the allocation of constituencies to the provinces and territories — and boundary adjustment — the drawing of constituency boundaries within the provinces and territories. Together, they determine the basis on which citizens elect those who govern. The number of submissions to the Royal Commission on Electoral Reform and Party Financing suggesting changes to the existing system demonstrates the importance of these issues"--Preface.
