MP Matt Jeneroux Resigns: What Calgarians Need to Know
Hold onto your hats, Calgary! Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux has officially resigned from his Edmonton Riverbend seat, effective November 6, 2025. This unexpected departure creates a significant ripple across Alberta's political landscape.
Jeneroux served in Parliament since 2015, a solid decade of federal service, following four years as an MLA. He even earned the title of "Best Constituency MP in Canada" from his peers in 2017. Now, his resignation will necessitate a federal by-election in the Edmonton riding.
This news lands just weeks after Calgary’s own political shake-up. Our city saw a new mayor elected on October 20, 2025, and a significant turnover on city council, marking the introduction of municipal political parties. Clearly, Alberta politics is in motion. Calgarians, ever attentive to shifts impacting our province, will be watching closely as the federal landscape also begins to realign.
