Prince Albert lends its name to its riding (a federal electoral district, which elects one MP), and the seat belongs to Randy Hoback (Conservative Party of Canada). Prince Albert’s riding for the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan isn’t shown: the province’s boundary file states no licence, so it can’t be reused. In the census’s list of municipalities, Prince Albert is a city. In Saskatchewan, councils aren’t on any open list we can use, so Prince Albert’s mayor isn’t named.

- Which riding. Each place is put in its ridings by where its 2021 Census residents live; a riding holding 5% or more of them is listed.
- Who holds each seat. A member who resigned or switched parties last week may still show here: the names are Wikidata’s.
- Not on this page. The open lists stop short of party labels, council budgets and band councils, so those are missing here.
- Election results. Ridings changed in 2023: the 2019 and 2021 results are on the old map, and the 2021 vote on today’s map is Elections Canada’s own estimate from polling divisions.
