History


Since it was first contested in 1975, the riding has returned MLAs from all three major parties. It originally alternated between the New Democrats and Progressive Conservatives, before being won by Liberal MLA June Draude with a thin majority. Draude later joined the newly created Saskatchewan Party, and the riding has been held by Saskatchewan Party MLAs since.
