I am a resident of postal address Glenburnie ON— but my entire neighbourhood has been a part of Kingston Ontario since 1998.

I worked for 30 years at Queen's University in Kingston. My children went to public schools and high schools in Kingston...I get all my groceries in Kingston and I participate in the community activities of Kingston.

We vote for the mayor of Kingston....we pay taxes in Kingston and Kingston gives us services such as garbage collection and show removal.

During all this time, the boundary that arbitarily puts us Kingstonians who happen to live north of the Hwy 401 in a completely different riding has never made any sense at all.

I was hopeful that a redistribution would fix the problem.

I am surprised and very disappointed that the proposal does not.

Please ensure that all residents of the City of Kingston can be represented by a member of Parliament who shares their location and their concerns.

Please put Glenburnie ON into the Kingston and the Islands riding where it belongs.
