Geography
The district is located in northern Alberta, containing the communities of Swan Hills, Barrhead, Westlock, Athabasca, and Smoky Lake. It stretches east into part of St. Paul County. Major transportation routes include Alberta Highways 2, 18, 28, and 33 (Grizzly Trail).
History
Шаблон:Align The district was created in 2017 when the Electoral Boundaries Commission recommended consolidating four electoral districts into three in northeastern Alberta, placing most of Barrhead-Morinville-Westlock and Athabasca-Sturgeon-Redwater, along with a small part of Lac La Biche-St. Paul-Two Hills, into the new district. The Commission recommended naming the district Athabasca-Barrhead, but the Assembly decided to retain Westlock in the name.[1] In 2017, the Athabasca-Barrhead-Westlock electoral district had a population of 46,920, which was slightly above the provincial average of 46,803 for an provincial electoral district.[2]
The district first elected United Conservative MLA Glenn van Dijken who had previously been elected to Barrhead-Morinville-Westlock as a Wildrose candidate in 2015.[3] Glenn van Dijken defeated his next closest challenger NDP candidate, day home operator and former Smoky Lake councillor Therese Taschuck by over 12,000 votes.[4]
