Hargrave pitches riding change to include Milk River Warner Coutts
Medicine Hat MP Bert Hargrave urged redrawing of Alberta ridings at a public hearing to move Milk River Warner and Coutts from Medicine Hat to the Lethbridge constituency. The Electoral Boundaries Commission will hold 15 hearings across Alberta as part of Canada’s decennial redistricting based on the 1981 census. The commission noted Hargrave’s support for shifting a boundary area including Raymond Magrath Del Bonita into Lethbridge, arguing Lethbridge is the region’s business hub. Hargrave also proposed the Milk River, Warner and Coutts communities join Lethbridge, citing their economic ties. Commission members Justice W J Cameron Kirby Ken Wark and Hilda Wilson said Hargrave’s ideas made sense.
