As part of Calgary, Eau Claire is governed by the city’s council, not one of its own. Because the Legislative Assembly of Alberta’s boundaries come with non-commercial terms, this page doesn’t say which riding Eau Claire is in. Of the 37 Commons seats from Alberta, the Conservative Party of Canada holds 33.
Three governments, and who does what
Eau Claire is governed by Calgary, with Alberta and Ottawa.
The city council decides local matters.
Schools, health care, highways, municipal law.

Green: municipal. Gold: provincial. Grey: federal.
No county or regional government sits above Calgary’s council; Division No. 6 is only a census division, a unit for statistics.

- Who holds each seat. Who holds each seat is read from Wikidata, so a very recent change in the Commons may not appear yet.
- Not on this page. No party tally for the council, which the open lists don’t record, and no band councils.
- Which riding. Where residents of the 2021 Census live decides the riding; any riding with 5% of them or more is named.
- Council money. Alberta’s 2024 municipal financial returns, per resident with Statistics Canada’s 2025 population estimate.
- Election results. The 2019 and 2021 figures are Elections Canada’s official counts on the ridings drawn in 2013; the “today’s boundaries” figures are its transposition of the 2021 vote onto the 2023 ridings, an estimate built from polling divisions.
