History

This riding was created in 1987 from territory that had been in the ridings of Calgary East and Bow River, which were abolished. In 2003, parts of this electoral district were transferred to the new Calgary Centre-North riding.

The riding was abolished in 2013. The bulk of the riding became Calgary Skyview, while a small portion was transferred to Calgary Forest Lawn, which largely replaced Calgary East.
