I would like to encourage the Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission to look at rural Kingston. This is the part of the city of Kingston that is north of the 401.

  • We pay city taxes.
  • We have connections with Kingston - our cultural, social, recreational activities.
  • We have Kingston police services as our police
  • We have the Kingston fire department as our fire services
  • We pay taxes to the City of Kingston.
  • We participate in Kingston activities, including political activities.

I am one of these rural Kingston people / homes.

We did not ask to be amalgamate a long time ago from Kingston township to the city of Kingston, but I have been an active participant ever since.

I don't understand why we cannot have our electoral boundaries as part of Kingston. Currently I have no connection to the current elections process and will have nothing with the proposed boundaries.

I feel that these lines on a map do not take into account actual people.

Please allow us to be part of the City of Kingston in all things. I have the right to be involved in my federal elections and want them to have meaning for me.

Sincerely,

Cindy Dunning
