Glastonbury is split between 2 federal ridings, chiefly Edmonton West and Edmonton Northwest
Local government for Glastonbury is Edmonton’s, with Andrew Knack as mayor. Because the Legislative Assembly of Alberta’s boundaries come with non-commercial terms, this page doesn’t say which riding Glastonbury is in. 66% of Glastonbury residents have Kelly McCauley as their MP; most of the rest have William (Billy) Morin.
Three governments, and who does what
Glastonbury is governed by Edmonton, with Alberta and Ottawa.
The city council decides local matters.
Schools, health care, highways, municipal law.
