# Edmonton-West Henday

It was contested for the first time in the 2019 Alberta election.

## Geography

In the northeast corner of the riding are the neighbourhoods of Wellington, Athlone and Calder, and in the south of the riding are the neighbourhoods of Terra Losa, La Perle, Belmead, Stewart Greens, Webber Greens, Suder Greens, Potter Greens, Breckenridge Greens, Rosenthal and Secord.

## History

Edmonton-West Henday :
| Assembly | Years | Member | Party |
| Riding created from Edmonton-Calder and Edmonton-Meadowlark |||||
| 30th | 2019–2023 | Jon Carson | New Democratic |
| 31st | 2023–Present | Brooks Arcand-Paul | New Democratic |
The district was created in 2017 when the Electoral Boundaries Commission recommended renaming Edmonton-Meadowlark, alongside a change in boundaries that saw the Meadowlark Park neighbourhood (among others) moved out of the riding. The Commission decided to name the district after Anthony Henday Drive which bisects the riding, rather than simply "Edmonton-West" to avoid confusion with the federal district of that name.
