Halifax West (provincial electoral district)

Halifax West was a provincial electoral district in Nova Scotia, Canada, that elected one member to the Nova Scotia House of Assembly. It was formed in 1933 when Halifax County was divided into five distinct electoral districts.[1] In 1955, the district of Halifax Northwest was created from a portion of Halifax West.[2] Following a name change in 1966 to Halifax County West, the district was redistributed entirely to create the current district of Halifax-St. Margaret's in 1967.[1]
