South Calgary (Provincial Electoral District) (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. South Calgary was a provincial electoral district from Alberta, Canada. The electoral district returned a single member to the Legislative Assembly of Alberta from 1913 to 1921. After 1921 the district was abolished and reconstituted to a five member district. The South Calgary electoral district was created in 1913 when the Calgary provincial electoral district was carved into three riding's. The first election in 1913 featured a two candidate fight between Dr. Thomas Blow Conservative candidate and well known Calgary area lawyer Clifford Jones. Blow won the district with 71% of the popular vote, riding the peak of a wave that saw all the Calgary districts return Conservatives that year.
