Brian
Contact Robert Lavigne at robert.lavigne at elections.ca for polling division 
maps of electoral districts, Kitchener Centre, Kitchener-Waterloo, Kitchener 
Conestoga, and Cambridge for $15.00 + tax each.
As I pledged will reimburse you for one ED map at next meeting.  Thanks.
Peace

Rick Fairman
