Manitoba is represented in the Canadian Parliament by 14 elected representatives in the House of Commons and by six senators who are appointed by the federal government.
In 1957 the electoral districts of Manitoba were redrawn to reflect the population shift from rural to urban areas, particularly to the city of Winnipeg and towns in the south, and also to the northern mining communities.

The Conservatives, in particular, have a number of ridings which are extremely safe, especially in the interior of BC close to the Alberta border.
The riding has historically been competitive with all three parties holding the seat at times in the last twenty years but the Liberals have controlled it for more than a decade.
See, despite the fact that the riding has an average income of over $110,000 per year and is one of the wealthiest in Canada, more than 20% of the population is going to vote NDP and another 8% will vote Green.
