The Ontario legislature had 130 seats until 1999, when it dropped to 103 and aligned with the federal riding boundaries.
There are now 124 ridings. They no longer align with the federal boundaries, and they're based on population data from 2011, with no indication that they'll be redistributed.

In 2016, there was an average of 108,482 citizens per riding. As of 2021 (last census with available data), there was an average of 114,709 citizens per riding. Some of those ridings have no doubt grown faster than others, creating distortions in representation (or exacerbating).
