From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Moose Mountain was a territorial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of the North-West Territories, Canada. The riding was created by royal proclamation in 1884 and abolished in 1888. The riding was abolished during redistribution after the North-West Representation Act passed through the Parliament of Canada.
