Riding Profile:
This largely rural riding runs from Rice Lake and the Trent River in
the north to the northern shore of Lake Ontario in the south.
The major centres in the riding are Port Hope, Trenton, Cobourg, Colborne
and Campbellford. The Alderville Native Reserve is also included northern
part of riding.
Although it is mostly rural, there are significant manufacturing and
retail trade sectors.
As a result of the 1999 redistribution, the riding added almost one-quarter
of the old Quinte riding to the old Northumberland.
Political History:
Tory Russell Rowe won five consecutive elections here beginning in 1963.
PC candidate Howard Sheppard won in 1981 and 1985, followed by Liberal
Joan Fawcett in 1987. Fawcett won again in 1990, only to be defeated
by Tory Douglas Galt in 1995.
