Almost every elec- \toral boundary in the province |was redrawn The next day--Thursday--the commissioners met to begin in earnest their redrawing of On- tario's 85 federal ridings, which they propose to expand to 88. In the meantime, the ruling Conservatives, opposition Liber- lals, and the New Democrats complained that redistribution would make a crazy quilt of On- \tario ridings.
