Oxford North

Oxford North was a federal electoral district represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 1867 to 1935. It was located in the province of Ontario. It was created by the British North America Act of 1867.

In 1882, the North Riding of the county of Oxford was defined to consist of the townships of East Nissouri, West Zorra, East Zorra, Blandford, South Easthope and North Easthope, the town of Woodstock, and the village of Embro.

In 1903, the riding was redefined to exclude the townships of South Easthope and North Easthope, and include the township of Blenheim.

In 1914, the riding was redefined to include the part of the village of Tavistock situated in the township of Zorra East.

The electoral district was abolished in 1933 when it was merged into Oxford riding.

gollark: Well, yes, you could describe it that way, much as I could describe this (EDIT: the new one) as... a very rough and inaccurate simulation of a financial market vaguely tied to some memes.
gollark: Also, it doesn't seem to have been much of a proof of concept given that it ran for a while with many updates and lots of support.
gollark: So what's with the legal stuff? Are you binding *yourselves* to not share bits of it, or using some proprietary code?
gollark: It says the last commit was 13 october 2019.
gollark: Oh, never mind, there are commits from October.
