East Calgary was an electoral district in the North-West Territories from 1894 to 1905, which was created when Calgary was split into East and West Calgary.[1]

The two ridings would later be merged to form the new Calgary Alberta provincial electoral district, when Alberta became a province separate from the North-West Territories.
