Template:Short description Template:Use Canadian English Template:Use mdy dates Script error: No such module "Infobox".Template:Template other Edmonton-Norwood was a provincial electoral district in Alberta, Canada, mandated to return a single member to the Legislative Assembly of Alberta using the first past the post method of voting from 1959 to 2004.[1]

History

The Edmonton-Norwood electoral district was created from the Edmonton district in 1959 and was abolished in 2004 when it merged with Edmonton-Highlands to form Edmonton-Highlands-Norwood. The district was a swing riding and was held by every major party in Alberta. The district has seen a couple of floor crossings and was the only urban seat held by the Alberta Alliance Party.

In 2004, Gary Masyk ran a campaign to save the district from being abolished, and to reduce the effect of Edmonton losing seats to Calgary.
