English: Schematic map of the results of the Canadian federal election, arranged by province/metropolitan area. As a regular map of the ridings tends to visually distort the importance of large northern ridings and make urban ridings nearly impossible to see, this diagram uses squares of equal size to represent seats, arranged in approximately geographical fashion.
The geographical distribution of votes within each province or metropolitan area is roughly represented (for example, one can see that most Conservative seats in Ontario were in the southeast) even though specific ridings are not indicated by name.
The white squares indicate a metropolitan area that is magnified in the lower part of the image. (One metropolitan area, the Golden Horseshoe, itself contains a white square that represents Toronto proper.)
