The shapefiles provide the polygon information associated with the Ontario elector districts. Shapefiles are intended for users to load into GIS software applications such as ESRI’s ArcView application and integrated with the users own GIS information. The files provided are informational and provided on an “as is” basis.
The shape file is projected using the “NAD 1983, Lambert Conformal Conic” projection.
