We don’t know the exact date but we do know a provincial election must be held between March 1 and May 31 this year.
Elections Alberta is getting the message out that electoral boundaries have changed since the last vote in 2008 and you might now live in a different riding.
Every 10 years the province strikes an Electoral Boundaries Commission to determine if new ridings need to be added, or changed with population growth and movement.
Drew Westwater with Elections Alberta tells 660News the Commission added four new ridings, 2 in Calgary, bringing the number province wide to 87, and it also tweaked the boundaries of nearly every riding.
Albertans should log on to elections.ab.ca to find their exact riding.
