The Calgary-Beddington electoral district was created in 2017 when the Electoral Boundaries Commission recommended renaming Calgary-Mackay-Nose Hill and changing its shape, removing its northern area but adding neighbourhoods from Calgary-Foothills and Calgary-Northern Hills. The Commission chose the name Beddington for this district because it "would most readily identify its location to residents in Calgary." The boundaries of the new electoral district in 2017 would have a population of 50,220, 7% above the provincial average of 46,803.[1]
In the 2019 Alberta general election, United Conservative Party candidate Josephine Pon would defeat NDP candidate Amanda Chapman by 3,807 votes. Pon gained the nomination for the Calgary-Beddington electoral district after Randy Kerr was removed by the UCP for failure to be "forthcoming" during the Alberta Election Commissioner's investigation into the Jeff Callaway leadership campaign for the UCP.[2] On April 30, 2019, Premier Jason Kenney would appoint Pon to Cabinet as the Minister of Seniors and Housing.[3]
Pon was unseated by Amanda Chapman from the NDP in the 2023 Alberta general election.[4]
