What are Canada's electoral districts also known as?

  1. Provinces & Territories

  2. Counties & Boroughs

  3. Ridings or Constituencies

  4. Zones & Areas

The correct answer is: Ridings or Constituencies

Electoral districts in Canada are known as ridings or constituencies. The term "provinces and territories" refers to the geographical divisions of Canada, not the electoral districts within them. Similarly, "Counties and Boroughs" are not used to describe electoral districts. "Zones and areas" are generic terms and do not have a specific meaning in relation to Canadian elections.
