Edmonton (electoral district)

Edmonton (electoral district)

Edmonton was a federal electoral district represented in the Canadian House of Commons. It was located initially in the Northwest Territories, and following its creation in 1905, the province of Alberta (although between 1905 and 1907 there was still a Saskatchewan riding named Edmonton). This riding was created in 1903, and was abolished in 1914 when it was redistributed into Edmonton East, Edmonton West and Strathcona ridings.
