If any of the ward boundaries are changed, the process must be completed by the end of this year in order to be in place for next year’s election. If the Ontario Municipal Board were to repeal any changes made by the city, the current boundaries would remain in place for next year and the revisions would be made for the 2022 election.

A full list of proposed changes are available on the city’s website here.

Changes to ward boundaries will not change the number of wards in London, which stands at 14.
