West Kootenay (provincial electoral district)

West Kootenay was a provincial electoral district in the Canadian province of British Columbia. It existed historically and was used to elect members to the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia.

The district was located in the Kootenay region of the province. The boundaries of the riding changed over time, reflecting population shifts and electoral boundary redistributions. It generally encompassed communities and areas within the western portion of the Kootenay region.

Historically, the West Kootenay electoral district saw representation from various political parties in British Columbia. The political landscape of the region and the specific issues of concern to voters influenced election outcomes.

The electoral district was eventually replaced or absorbed into other ridings as part of electoral boundary revisions aimed at ensuring equitable representation across the province.
