The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for New Brunswick has concluded its work of redrawing the province's federal electoral map.

This independent Commission , established in November 2021, worked to set boundaries so that each electoral district contains roughly the same number of people while also taking into account communities of interest or identity, historical patterns and geographic size in sparsely populated regions. It also proposed names for each electoral district.

The Commission has submitted its final report to the Chief Electoral Officer for transmission to the Speaker of the House.

The Chief Electoral Officer will use this report when drafting the representation order, which is expected to become official in September 2023. The new electoral map will be used at the first general election called at least seven months after that date.

For the riding of Miramichi-Grand Lake, the commission proposed extending the riding south toward the Grand Lake, and transferring part of the Tracadie area from Miramichi-Grand Lake to the riding of Acadie-Bathurst.
