Oxford’s MP is William (Billy) Morin (Conservative Party of Canada), for Edmonton Northwest
From Alberta come 37 MPs, 33 of them with the Conservative Party of Canada. Because the Legislative Assembly of Alberta’s boundaries come with non-commercial terms, this page doesn’t say which riding Oxford is in. Andrew Knack, the mayor, heads the council of Edmonton, which governs Oxford as one of its neighbourhoods.
Three governments, and who does what
Oxford is governed by Edmonton, with Alberta and Ottawa.
The city council decides local matters.
Schools, health care, highways, municipal law.

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

| Legislative Assembly of Alberta | 29 May 2023 | – |
| House of Commons | 28 April 2025 | – |
Why not 2025? Elections Canada publishes those counts under non-commercial terms, and its open data stop at the 2021 election. Provincially the last general election was on 29 May 2023, for the Legislative Assembly of Alberta; federally, on 28 April 2025. Edmonton council was elected on 20 October 2025, and the next vote is on 15 October 2029. Edmonton votes next on 15 October 2029: the Local Authorities Election Act sets municipal elections on the third Monday in October every four years.

- Council money. Alberta’s 2024 municipal financial returns, per resident with Statistics Canada’s 2025 population estimate.
- Which riding. A riding is listed when 5% or more of the place’s 2021 Census residents live in it; the largest share comes first.
- Not on this page. Band councils, and which party runs the council: the open lists carry no party, and most councils have none.
- Who holds each seat. The members named here are Wikidata’s, kept up by volunteers; a by-election or a floor crossing may take a few days to show.
