Three Hills-Airdrie 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 1993 to 1997.[1]

History

[edit]

The Three Hills-Airdrie electoral district was created in the 1993 electoral district re-distribution from the Three Hills and Drumheller electoral districts. It would only be contested once in the 1993 Alberta general election, and represented by Progressive Conservative MLA Carol Louise Haley. The district was dissolved in the 1997 electoral district re-distribution into the Airdrie-Rocky View and Olds-Didsbury-Three Hills electoral districts.[2]
