Burnaby—Richmond

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Burnaby—Richmond (also known as Burnaby—Richmond—Delta) was a federal electoral district in British Columbia, Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1949 to 1979.

This riding was created as "Burnaby—Richmond" in 1947 from parts of New Westminster and Vancouver North ridings.

The name of the electoral district was changed in 1970 to "Burnaby—Richmond—Delta".

It was abolished in 1976 when it was redistributed into Burnaby and Richmond—South Delta ridings.
