Federally, Walker is divided between 2 ridings, among them Edmonton Southeast and Edmonton Gateway
Most of Walker (54% of residents) is represented by Jagsharan Singh Mahal, and much of the rest by Tim Uppal. Because the Legislative Assembly of Alberta’s boundaries come with non-commercial terms, this page doesn’t say which riding Walker is in. As a neighbourhood of Edmonton, Walker answers to the city council and its mayor, Andrew Knack.
