No, it's not; it's of Land Districts, not ridings. Compare the list of ridings for this year to the mapped areas on the map; the Yale and Kootenay Land Districts shown had by then at least ten ridings - thirteen it turns out - in the same area, e.g. Greenwood, Rossland, Slocan etc.Skookum1 (talk) 18:40, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

To underscore the point, here's the roster of ridings in the areas shown in the map as Yale and Kootenay:

• Cranbrook
• Columbia
• Kamloops
• Grand Forks-Greenwood
• Kaslo-Slocan
• Rossland-Trail
• Nelson
• Salmon Arm
• Similkameen
• South Okanagan
• Revelstoke
• Yale
• Fernie

somewhere recently I saw a set of datapoints for electoral areas, mighht have been off maps.gov.bc.ca or a page linked through there; no maps, just the line-descriptoins but in confertible-to-map format....speaking of which User:Pfly is hereabouts only a bit these last few days, wiating on a kid to hatch it seems, prob. won't be hearing much from our ship-person and mapmaker once the caul is dropped........
