Westminster-Chilliwhack

Westminster-Chilliwack was a provincial electoral district of British Columbia, Canada, from 1894 to 1900. It and its sister ridings (Westminster-Delta, Westminster-Dewdney, and Westminster-Richmond) were successors to the old four-member Westminster riding, which appeared in 1890 only and was a subdivision of the older New Westminster provincial electoral riding. Westminster-Chilliwack was succeeded by the Chilliwhack riding in the election of 1903.
