I admit it, I laughed...

That being said, I think it makes more sense than Niagara West—Glanbrook... Having a riding spread across two municipalities seemed weird to me.

I'm sure the people of Dundas are pretty happy about being in Ancaster too.


Maybe it makes sense, it paves the way for Hamilton to be rebranded as Ancaster. It might just work.

They've updated the ridings: http://www.redecoupage-federal-redis...nt=addi&lang=e

* Ancaster is no longer a huge riding that encompasses much of West Hamilton and all of Dundas. Instead, there is now the mostly-rural Ancaster—Flamborough—Glanbrook.
* Hamilton Centre no longer exists. The lower city is now part of Hamilton West—Dundas
* The mountain is now mostly Hamilton Mountain West
* Hamilton East—Stoney Creek is gone, replaced by Hamilton East and Stoney Creek—Mountain East
