Although the regional variances fall relatively within the standards, the Commission had to make readjustments as the evolution of the Quebec population had generated significant variances in certain electoral districts, given the 2001 electoral quota.
These changes were made by taking into consideration both the new reality, namely the evolution of the population and the merging of municipalities, as well as the historical pattern, namely the current boundaries, the former cities, regional county municipalities and natural boundaries.
