Have to give Alward some credit on the plan to shrink the size of the legislature from 55 members to 49.
Taking it down to 39 would have been better, but the reality of trying to keep his caucus together probably limited how much he could really reduce the number.
When the census data quantifies the movement of people from rural areas to urban areas, our hope is still that the suggested range of +/- 5% is adhered to. Every vote should have equal weight, whether that voter lives in Dieppe or Bathurst.
