== Administrative Divisions == | == Administrative & Electoral Divisions == | ||
Acadia is currently divided into two electoral divisions, Metro and Great North, which further subdivide into <u>wards</u> (for statistical purposes only). These electoral divisions are constructed by combining the ''regions'' of Acadia, and are created every electoral cycle by the electoral commission (consisting of the Chief Justice, the Speaker of the House of Assembly, and the Ombudsman). Whenever a parliamentary election is held, each electoral division can elect a set number of MPs to represent it in the Parliament. Only residents of an electoral division can run to represent that division in Parliament and vote for its candidates. | |||
The ''regions'' of Acadia also serve as administrative and statistical subdivisions, much like states in the USA or provinces in Canada. They are created/abolished by the Parliament, and are composed of multiple towns. As per the Region Act, every region is entitled to a Regional Council which is made up of one representative from each town and convenes whenever any funding is received, allowing funds to be distributed fairly and equitably. | |||
