Restigouche West
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Restigouche West (French: Restigouche-ouest) was a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick, Canada. This riding was created in the 1973 redistribution when New Brunswick moved to single member districts from Bloc voting. It was merged with Madawaska-la-Vallée to form the new district of Restigouche-la-Vallée in the 2006 redistribution. Prior to its creation, it had been part of the Restigouche County district which returned three members.
The riding, which was not changed in the 1994 redistribution, was made up of the part of Restigouche County that lies west of the Campbellton area. It includes two incorporated municipalities: Saint-Quentin and Kedgwick.
