[edit] Definitions

The Canadian Press defines Eastern Canada as everything east of and including Thunder Bay, Ontario.[1]

Largest Metropolitan Areas

[edit] Politics

At the federal political level, Eastern Canada is typically considered to be a stronghold for the Liberal Party, with the majority of its support in recent elections coming from this region. A notable exception is in Quebec and East End Montreal, which usually strongly supports the Bloc Québécois.

There are major exceptions, particularly in most cities except Toronto and Montreal, and in the rural areas of these provinces, where support for the Conservative Party is strong.

Eastern Canada is represented by 213 Members of Parliament (106 in Ontario, 75 in Quebec and 32 in the Atlantic Provinces) and 78 senators.
