Lamont sends one MP to Ottawa from Lakeland, its riding (a federal electoral district, which elects one MP): Shannon Stubbs (Conservative Party of Canada). Because the Legislative Assembly of Alberta’s boundaries come with non-commercial terms, this page doesn’t say which riding Lamont is in. In the census’s list of municipalities, Lamont is a town. In Alberta, councils aren’t on any open list we can use, so Lamont’s mayor isn’t named.

elections.ab.ca ↗What this data can and can’t tell you
- 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. Party control (most Canadian councils sit without parties, and the open lists record none) and band councils.
- Who holds each seat. Who holds each seat is read from Wikidata, so a very recent change in the Commons may not appear yet.
- Election results. Two maps are in play: the 2013 ridings, on which 2019 and 2021 were counted, and the 2023 ridings, onto which Elections Canada transposed the 2021 vote poll by poll.
- Council money. Alberta’s 2024 municipal financial returns, per resident with Statistics Canada’s 2025 population estimate.
