Following the Alberta Electoral Boundary Re-distribution of 2004 , Dunvegan was the only division with a population of less than 75% the provincial average, with its recorded population of 24,202. As a result, it is formally designated as a ''special consideration'' division as opposed to a standard rural division. Due to its isolation, the constituency meets criteria in the Albertan election laws that allow for this discrepancy. Prior to 2004 the district was named Dunvegan , the boundaries did not significantly change. The constituency lies on the border with British Columbia . Major towns include Fairview , Falher , Grimshaw and Spirit River . The riding contains a large agricultural industry based on cattle farming, the border closure to live beef has hurt the riding. The current MLA for this district is Progressive Conservative Hector Goudreau . He was re-elected in the district in the 26th Alberta General Election in a near photo finish race with Dale Lueken from the Alberta Alliance . Peace River borders to the north and east.
