History

The electoral district was created in the 2010 electoral boundary re-distribution from the electoral old district of Athabasca-Redwater. The electoral district boundaries were updated to align the district to current municipal boundaries along the sparsely populated north and western boundaries. [1]

The Athabasca-Sturgeon electoral district was dissolved in the 2017 electoral boundary re-distribution, and portions of the district would incorporate the Athabasca-Barrhead-Westlock and Morinville-St. Albert electoral districts for the 2019 Alberta general election. [2]
