The Legislative Assembly of Alberta’s riding map carries non-commercial terms, so Monterey Park isn’t placed in a riding here. Calgary’s council runs Monterey Park, one of the city’s neighbourhoods. Of the 37 Commons seats from Alberta, the Conservative Party of Canada holds 33.
Three governments, and who does what
Monterey Park is governed by Calgary, with Alberta and Ottawa.
The city council decides local matters.
