The district was created in 2017 when the Electoral Boundaries Commission recommended moving the city of Cochrane to the new riding of Airdrie-Cochrane, requiring a new name for Banff-Cochrane. The district gained small areas to the south and west from Airdrie, Chestermere-Rocky View and Livingstone-Macleod, including the entirety of Kananaskis Country. The Commission also decided to join the Stoney Reserves and Tsuu T'ina Reserve into the same district for representation purposes.[1] In 2017, the Banff-Kananaskis electoral district had a population of 46,824, which was slightly above the provincial average of 46,803 for a provincial electoral district.[1]
In the 2019 Alberta general election, United Conservative Party candidate Miranda Rosin was elected with 51 per cent of the vote, defeating New Democratic Party incumbent candidate Cam Westhead with 42 per cent of the vote, and four other candidates.[2]
In the 2023 Alberta general election, Miranda Rosin was unseated by the NDP candidate Sarah Elmeligi.[3]
