OTTAWA — Voters in the federal riding of Calgary Heritage will go to the polls late next month.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced a byelection will be held in the Alberta riding on July 24.
Conservative MP Bob Benzen resigned his seat in Calgary Heritage at the end of last year.
Benzen easily won re-election in 2021, with New Democrat Kathleen Johnson placing second and Liberal Scott Forsyth coming third.
Elections Canada says it will open an office in Calgary Heritage soon.
The latest call comes as voters cast ballots Monday in four other byelections across the country.
