MP seeking to add “Leamington” to name of proposed new riding Recently proposed riding redistribution by the Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for Ontario is a good opportunity to recognize Leamington’s important place in the constituency by changing the proposed name from “Chatham-Kent’ to “Chatham-Kent Leamington”, says Chatham-Kent Essex MP Dave Van Kesteren. The independent, non-partisan commission released their proposal last week with a few changes locally to the riding of Chatham-Kent Essex. “I am very happy that the proposal has kept Leamington in this riding,” said Van Kesteren. “The Municipality of Leamington, which includes Mersea Township, is an important part of our region, and it deserves to have that role properly recognized.” Van Kesteren intends to submit his comments to the commission with an amendment to have the riding named Chatham-Kent – Leamington. Van Kesteren said he encourages all interested citizens to show their support for the proposed name change by contacting him directly, or taking this opportunity to participate in the upcoming public hearings of the commission.
