A rough guide would be that urban ridings have about 120,000 people in them and rural ridings between 50,000 and 100,000 in most cases. The same is true for provincial ridings [...] Three other provisions in the constitution water down the population of outlying areas even more.Word-choice!
It seems that you are actually saying that Canadian election laws beef up the representation accorded low-density rural areas. That country folk get disproportionately HIGH representation.
Am I correct in thinking that?
