Fundy Royal (formerly known as Royal from 1914 to 1966, Fundy—Royal from 1966 to 2003, and Fundy in 2003–2004) is a federal electoral district in southern New Brunswick , Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 1917.
The riding roughly covers the area in between the three largest cities in the province; Fredericton , Saint John and Moncton . Included in the riding are the towns of Quispamsis , Hampton , Sussex , Fundy-St. Martins , Three Rivers , Salisbury and part of Riverview . Also included are the area around Loch Lomond east of Saint John, and the Kingston Peninsula .
The neighbouring ridings are Saint John—Rothesay , New Brunswick Southwest , Fredericton , Miramichi—Grand Lake , Moncton—Riverview—Dieppe , and Beauséjour .
The riding of "Royal" was created in 1914. The name came from the counties of Queens and Kings , of which it was composed.
In 1966, Royal riding was amalgamated with most of Albert County and a rural portion of Saint John County into a new riding, "Fundy—Royal". One parish in Queens county was reapportioned into York—Sunbury at this time. In the 2003 redistribution, it lost almost all of Queens County and a large part of Kings County to other ridings; while gaining western Westmorland County . The riding was renamed "Fundy". This name was changed to "Fundy Royal" in 2004. As per the 2012 federal electoral redistribution , this riding will gain territories from Beauséjour , Saint John and New Brunswick Southwest , and lose a small territory to the new riding of Saint John—Rothesay .
The riding has been one of the most supportive of the Conservatives in the country, returning a member of that party or its predecessors in every election, except for the 1993 election when Liberal Paul Zed won and the 2015 election when Liberal Alaina Lockhart won.
