Notes on this record
How the lists were read, and what could not be.
- Federal and provincial representatives only, from a Represent point lookup at the city centre. The municipal council and any candidates are not yet captured.
- Sitting council (Mayor + 8, all at large) from City of Bathurst — City Council (https://www.bathurst.ca/en/city-council), retrieved 2026-10-09; emails are printed reversed on the page (anti-scrape) and were un-reversed. Currency confirmed by the City's notice 'Welcoming our new City Council' (https://www.bathurst.ca/en/city-news/657/welcoming-our-new-city-council), council sworn in 2026-06-01.
- Last NB local general election verified as 2026-05-11 (Elections NB 'Local Government Elections May 11, 2026' mailer) — NOT 2025-05-12; the 2025 date in the work brief was wrong.
- Provincial MLA added from the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick Members Listing (https://www.legnb.ca/en/members/current, retrieved 2026-10-09); riding 'Bathurst' chosen by a Represent boundary point lookup at the /local centre (the only current-name NB district returned). legnb.ca robots.txt sets crawl-delay 10200, so only the one listing page was fetched.
