A parliamentary committee is set to begin its review of federal electoral redistricting, which could see Ontario lose a seat and the western provinces gain some.

The House of Commons Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs is set to meet on the matter on Jan. 31. A number of Conservative and Liberal MPs from east-coast ridings—including a minister—are set to appear, as first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter.
