London West (provincial electoral district)

In 2005, it was defined to consist of the part of the city lying north and west of a line drawn from the western limit of the city along Dingman Creek, Southdale Road West, Wharncliffe Road South, Commissioners Road East, the Canadian National Railway, the Thames River, Wharncliffe Road North, Oxford Street West and Wonderland Road North.

History

The provincial electoral district was created in 1996 from parts of London South, London North and London Centre, when provincial ridings were defined to have the same borders as federal ridings. It initially consisted of the part of the city lying north and west of a line drawn from the western limit of the city along Dingman Creek, Southdale Road West, Wharncliffe Road South, Commissioners Road East, the London and Port Stanley Electric Railway, the Thames River, Wharncliffe Road, Oxford Street, Wonderland Road North and Hutton Road.

In 2005, it was given its current boundaries as described above.

The long-time MPP Chris Bentley resigned his seat in the legislature effective on February 14, 2013. He was replaced by Peggy Sattler in the August 1st by-election. Sattler was subsequently re-elected in 2018 and 2022.
