St. Paul's in relation to the other Toronto ridings

'St. Paul's' is a federal and provincial electoral district in Ontario, Canada, that has been represented in the Canadian House of Commons since 1935, and in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario since 1999.
The small but densely-populated riding covers the area to the north of downtown Toronto. (Map) It had long been considered a bellwether riding, having been represented by only three Opposition MPs. However, like most Toronto-based ridings, the Liberals have dominated recent elections. Since the Liberals won all but one seat in Ontario in their 1993 landslide, they have won St. Paul's by 15,000 votes or more. The current MP is Carolyn Bennett and the current MPP is Michael Bryant.
