Boundaries

The riding was created in 1934 and consisted of the counties of Victoria and Haliburton.[1] In 1967, the riding was renamed as Victoria-Haliburton and consisted of the counties of Victoria and Haliburton, the town of Lindsay and the villages of Bobcaygeon, Fenelon Falls, Omemee, Sturgeon Point and Woodville, and the Improvement District of Bicroft.[2] In 1975, the boundaries were redefined as only including the counties of Victoria and Haliburton.[3] In 1986, the riding was changed slightly to exclude the township of Manvers.[4]

In 1996, a major electoral riding redistribution occurred which abolished the riding. Overall 130 seats were reduced to 103 which harmonized the provincial riding boundaries with those of the already existing federal ridings. The riding was dissolved into the new ridings of Haliburton—Kawartha Lakes—Brock and Parry Sound—Muskoka.[5]
