History
The riding was created in 1987 from portions of North Vancouver—Burnaby and Capilano electoral districts. The 2012 federal electoral boundaries redistribution concluded that the electoral boundaries of North Vancouver should be adjusted, and a modified electoral district of the same name will be contested in future elections. The redefined North Vancouver loses the eastern portion of its current territory to the new district of Burnaby North—Seymour, while its western boundary with West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country is adjusted to correspond to the boundaries between the District of North Vancouver, West Vancouver and the Capilano Indian Reserve. These new boundaries were legally defined in the 2013 representation order, which came into effect upon the call of the 42nd Canadian federal election, scheduled for October 2015. Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution, the riding was renamed to North Vancouver—Capilano. The distribution also incorporated all parts of West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country south of the Trans-Canada Highway and east of 21 St, and removed the Lynn Valley and Lynnmour areas to Burnaby North—Seymour. The boundary change in West Vancouver was criticized by some, including Patrick Weiler, the Member of Parliament previously representing that area. The new boundaries came into effect in the 2025 Canadian federal election. ==Members of Parliament==
