Certainly if the ridings were redrawn before this election Harper would have had a stronger mandate.

I doubt it.

Of the ridings mentioned, they would have lost Labrador and not picked up any.

Anyway, the point is the hinterlands are vastly overrepresented and cities under represented. That needs to change.
