Combine with Saint John—Rothesay

There's no reason that Saint John—Rothesay should have a page separate from the Saint John (electoral district) page. The district's boundaries are almost entirely unchanged from its previous incarnation, and a mere name change of an electoral district does not necessitate the starting of a new article. Note the extensive histories listed on the pages of most Canadian electoral districts, spanning changes to boundaries and district names over numerous redistributions, while remaining contained together on a single page. Only when districts are dismembered or radically altered (i.e. redistributed to contain little of the previous incarnation) should a new page be started. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.251.250.241 (talk) 19:13, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, the riding is 97% the same, apparently. Pretty much just a name change, as Rothesay is already in the riding. -- Earl Andrew - talk 22:27, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

why does the Election choices for Saint John NB exclude Radical Marijuana candidate Michael Moffat? if the List is going to be included in Wiki it should at least be Accurate of Elections Canada. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.34.64.188 (talk) 00:30, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
