It is a redistribution of the riding of Nigadoo-Chaleur. ==History and geography== Nigadoo-Chaleur was created in the 1973 electoral redistribution as one of the five districts from the previous Gloucester district, defined as the parish of Beresford and the villages in that area of Gloucester County.〔(1974 Report of the Representation and Electoral Boundaries Commission ).
