Representation should be based primarily on population and not what resources exist in a certain area. Most people like the idea of all votes being equal but if we start looking at what certain regions contribute to the overall economic wellbeing of the province then we are moving away from that philosophy. (Reminds me a bit of how voting was once based on if you owned property or not) The St. John's metro accounts for 50% of the province's GDP but less than 40% of the province's population.

Why should someone's vote be worth more than someone's else's just because of where they live?
