Saint Boniface—Saint Vital

Federal electoral district in Manitoba, Canada

Saint Boniface—Saint Vital (French: Saint-Boniface—Saint-Vital; formerly Saint Boniface) is a federal electoral district in Winnipeg, Manitoba that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 1925.

Quick Facts Manitoba electoral district, Federal electoral district ...

The district covers roughly the southern portion of the city of Winnipeg, east of the Red River. In particular, it contains the Franco-Manitoban community of Saint Boniface and roughly the northern two-thirds of the community of St. Vital. The riding (as federal electoral districts are called in Canada) has a sizeable French population (16% according to the last census) and was a Liberal Party stronghold for most of its history. However, Conservative Shelly Glover, a Winnipeg police sergeant, won it in 2008 and three years later became the first centre-right MP in the riding's history to be re-elected.

It is the only riding in Western Canada that regularly elects francophone candidates to parliament.

Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution, this riding will be renamed St. Boniface—St. Vital in English at the first election held after April 22, 2024. It will gain the neighbourhood of Minnetonka from Winnipeg South.^[3]
