Contents

It is one of several ridings within the Halifax Regional Municipality. It encompasses the neighbourhood known informally as West End, Halifax. The economy consists mostly of military employment from CFB Halifax as well as retail stores on Quinpool Road.

The riding is one of the few in the Province to have a long history of New Democratic Party (NDP) representation. Since 1967, when the riding was created, the riding has been represented by an NDP Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) (Alexa McDonough followed by Howard Epstein) for 27 years. However, in the 2013 election, the Liberal candidate, Joachim Stroink was elected and now represents the riding in the House of Assembly.
