When Altadore votes

The last and next general elections at each level; a by-election can come in between.

House of Commons28 April 2025–

After the 20 October 2025 election, Calgary council next goes to the polls on 15 October 2029. The Local Authorities Election Act fixes that date: the third Monday in October every four years. The Legislative Assembly of Alberta was last elected on 29 May 2023, and the House of Commons on 28 April 2025. No open copy of the 2025 counts exists, and Elections Canada’s own terms rule out commercial reuse, so 2021 is the last vote shown.

How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • Council money. Alberta’s 2024 municipal financial returns, per resident with Statistics Canada’s 2025 population estimate.
  • Election results. Elections Canada redrew the ridings in 2023 and re-tallied the 2021 ballots onto the new map from polling divisions; that estimate, and the official 2019 and 2021 counts on the old map, are what you see.
  • Who holds each seat. MPs come from Wikidata’s records of the 45th Parliament, which can lag a resignation or a by-election by some days.
  • Which riding. Ridings are assigned from the 2021 Census: the one with most residents first, then any holding 5% or more.
  • Not on this page. Party control (most Canadian councils sit without parties, and the open lists record none) and band councils.
