[edit]I believe that Federal and Provincial electoral districts should be distinct, but don't have the time to reconcile this. I marked this page in the disambiguation page as "Federal" district because that's what I was researching when I found the confusion.
The "members" list started out with what I presume were Provincial members, and ended up with what I presume were Federal members, with no indication at the boundary. I "fixed" the list to match the federal list, and in the process removed the "wrong" info from the provincial district.
Who was the federal member in 1950? That's what I was looking at, and the answer was absurd. The next guy will be looking for the Provincial District and will find my answers just as absurd. I don't have the time to fix up any of this. I have no idea whether the history refers to the federal or provincial district and don't have the time to research it.
I'm about to add a comment at the top referring to the ambiguity confusion and depart. I'm not a wiki regular, and am not too sure at the terminology here.
Some regular should clone the page from before I got here into a provincial electoral district page, rename this one to a federal district page and remove the bogus info from the ones it doesn't apply to. That requires more wiki skills than I have. Any such rename would need a fix on the disambiguation page.
