History:

Since the riding was formed in 1988 it has primarily been held by MPs from right-leaning parties. The lone exception is when the Liberals held it from 1993 to 1997; the election cycle that saw the Progressive Conservatives lose all but two of their previous 156 seats.

Then Reform Party member Roy Bailey won the seat in 1997 before retiring in 2004 as a member of the Conservative Party. The riding has been held by Conservatives since then, first Ed Komarnicki and now Robert Kitchen.
