Thunder Bay—Atikokan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thunder Bay—Atikokan was a federal electoral district represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1979 to 2003. It was located in the northwestern part of the province of Ontario. This riding was created in 1976, from parts of Fort William and Thunder Bay ridings.

It initially consisted of the part of the Territorial District of Rainy River east of the 4th Meridian, including the whole of the Township of Atikokan; and the southwest part of the Territorial District of Thunder Bay, including the southern part of the city of Thunder Bay, Ontario.

The electoral district was abolished in 2003 when it was redistributed between Thunder Bay—Rainy River and Thunder Bay—Superior North ridings.
