Riding Info
This eastern Ontario riding lies on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River up to the Quebec border. It contains the townships of South Glengarry, North Stormont, South Stormont, North Dundas and South Dundas.
The city of Cornwall accounts for about half the riding population. The rest of the riding is largely rural and includes Winchester, Chesterville, Iroquois, Finch, Morrisburg and the part of the Akwesasne Indian Reserve that is in Ontario.
Stormont-Dundas was created in 1966 from Stormont and Grenville-Dundas ridings. In 1996, boundaries were changed slightly. The riding name was changed to Stormont-Dundas-Charlottenburgh in 1999. In 2004, a small part of Glengarry-Prescott-Russell was added in the northeast and the name of the riding was changed.
Population: 99,764 (2006 census; an increase of 0.8% since 2001)
