History

This riding was originally created in 1914 from Winnipeg and Selkirk ridings.

In 1997, it was renamed "Winnipeg North—St. Paul".

In 2003, Winnipeg North—St. Paul was abolished with parts transferred to Winnipeg North, Winnipeg Centre and Kildonan—St. Paul ridings. Winnipeg North was re-created from parts of Winnipeg North—St. Paul and Winnipeg North Centre.

Historically a safe seat for the New Democratic Party, in 2011 Winnipeg North was narrowly retained by Liberal incumbent Kevin Lamoureux in an otherwise dismal performance by the party nationwide. [7] It also holds the distinction of being the only seat flipped by the Liberals in 2011, compared to 2008, when the seat was held by the New Democratic Party. Along with Wascana around Regina, Saskatchewan, Winnipeg North was one of only two seats won by the Liberals in the Prairie Provinces.

This riding gained territory from Kildonan—St. Paul during the 2012 Canadian federal electoral redistribution.

Kevin Lamoureux was re-elected to represent Winnipeg North in the 2015 Canadian federal election, as the Liberals formed a majority government. In 2015, he was the only incumbent MP from Winnipeg to be re-elected. He was re-elected as the Liberals won minority governments in 2019 and 2021.
