Appel4PM 2 Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 I was wondering why, despite certain ridings being called one thing, certain sites and people refer to it as something else? For example, during the election, Gilles Duceppe's riding was called "Laurier", but in the House of Commons, he's introduced as the Member from "Laurier-Sainte Marie"? Why?

Myke 1 Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Sometimes the names change mid-term, but I dunno if that's the case with Duceppe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mantis 1 Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Some of the names are just too long - it's simply easier to shorten them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
