(b) wherever a word or expression is used to denote a territorial division, such word or expression shall indicate the territorial division as it existed or was bounded on March 1, 2002, with the exception of the Community of Bedford. For this community, the limits used are from the former Town of Bedford, as it existed on March 31, 1996.

(c) reference to "counties" for inclusion in an electoral district signifies that all cities, towns, villages and Indian reserves lying within the perimeter of the counties are included unless otherwise described;
