Élections Montréal<\/span> and the Service des infrastructure du réseau routier (Division de la géomatique) present an interactive map<\/a> where Montrealers can visualize the electoral districts of the 2021 general election as well as those proposed by the draft bylaw for the 2025 election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The modifications to the electoral map are proposed to comply with the law and ensure a more effective representation. They have the effect of increasing or decreasing the number of voters within the affected districts due to the demographic changes observed in recent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The update of the electoral map is a planned and recurring operation, the year preceding a general election. This operation has no impact on the electoral framework<\/span>, City governance, the number of elected officials, or the voting procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voters who wish to file an objection to the proposed electoral district boundaries have until April 10th<\/sup> to do so. Objections must be made in writing (see the public notice for more details).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The modification of the electoral map is closely regulated by the law. The next steps in this matter are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
