Canadian federal election results in Northern Saskatchewan

This is page shows results of Canadian federal elections in the northern part of the province of Saskatchewan.

Regional profile

Like southern Saskatchewan, the northern areas traditionally feature a strong urban-rural split, although it is less pronounced here. The Conservatives swept here in 2004 and the former Canadian Alliance also nearly swept the region in 2000. The rural areas (except for far Northern Saskatchewan) are strongly conservative, just like in Alberta. The far north with its high first nations population has stronger support for the Liberals, and the Liberals were able to pick up the far northern seat in 2006 in a controversial close election. Saskatoon also has large Liberal support as well as traditional New Democratic Party support. However, Saskatoon's ridings are gerrymandered into rural areas, making it difficult for the NDP or the Liberals to win there.
