@2607:fea8:be1f:fa53:b0cc:bc47:21c5:c150, Earl Andrew, and GoodDay: With regard to these edits: [1][2][3] The article currently states: "In the process, the riding was renamed Leeds—Grenville—Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes. At 49 characters, this is the longest riding name in Canada." But by my count, Beauport—Côte-de-Beaupré—Île d'Orléans—Charlevoix also has 49 characters (including apostrophes, spaces, and dashes). If we're going to note this trivia (and I'm not saying we should), then (a) let's be sure it's correct — there's a difference between "is the longest" and "is tied for the longest"; (b) also note it on the page for Beauport—Côte-de-Beaupré—Île d'Orléans—Charlevoix; and (c) make an analogous comment on the pages of the federal districts with the shortest names, Vimy (electoral district) and Ajax (electoral district).
