		With a view to remedying the electoral district's population variance while respecting public input, the Commission's final recommendation adds to the electoral district portions of Restigouche, Gloucester and Kent counties, increasing the population and reducing its variance to —14 percent, a reduced population justified under the Act by the electoral district's large geographic area.

	New Statesman: How gerrymandering helped American blacks - the strangely shaped 12th District in North Carolina (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-20)
		The 12th District had its origins in the 1965 Voting Rights Act (VRA), one of the most radical and far-reaching pieces of legislation passed by President Lyndon Johnson, who had pressed for the "goddamnedest, toughest voting-rights bill" that could be devised.
		Far from the 12th District being an example of electoral apartheid, they insist, it is a response to electoral apartheid.
		District 12 is seen as the equivalent of affirmative action in the voting arena and one hears rumblings from whites that "unqualified" officials are being returned to Washington.

	Daryl Kramp, Member of Parliament Prince Edward Hastings Electoral District Constituency
		BANCROFT — Prince Edward-Hastings MP Daryl Kramp is questioning the logic behind the federal government’s decision today to award a $3.2-billion contract to acquire the Sikorsky H-92 helicopter to replace the aging fleet of Sea Kings.
		“While I applaud the decision to replace the Sea Kings, this is something that should have been done years ago,” said Kramp.
		Even now, with this new agreement, it will be another four years before the Sea Kings are fully replaced — that will be 15 years of using unsafe military transportation.
