    History


    This riding was created as "Athabaska" in 1924 from parts of Battle River, Edmonton East and Edmonton West ridings. Its first election was poorly conducted with many election irregularities. The culprits, two Edmonton lawyers, barely avoided criminal prosecution.
    The riding was abolished in 1966 when it was redistributed into Athabasca, Peace River and Vegreville ridings.
