Canada , that has been represented in the
Canadian House of Commons since 1988. Its population in 2001 was 82,782. It predecessor riding,

Queens County .
The riding was named after
York and
Sunbury counties, of which it was composed.

Carletonâ€"Charlotte riding, and a largely uninhabited area moved to
Miramichi . The remainder was incorproated into "Fredericton" riding. It was renamed "Frederictonâ€"Yorkâ€"Sunbury" shortly after the 1988 election.
This riding was abolished in 1996 when more rural areas were moved into other districts (particularly
