September 1, 2021 Page 1 of 27 Electoral History for Inverness Inverness The electoral district of Inverness was re-created following the recommendations of the 1992 Electoral Boundaries Commission report. The two districts of Inverness North and South were once again merged into one district, encompassing most of the county. The only exceptions were that the Port Hawkesbury and Port Hastings areas were moved to the Guysborough-Port Hawkesbury district, and the area north of the southern border of the Cape Breton Highlands National Park was moved to the Victoria district.

In 2003, Inverness gained the northern area of Inverness County from Victoria and Port Hawkesbury from Guysborough - Port Hawkesbury (SNS 2002, c. 34).

In 2013, following the recommendations of the 2012 Electoral Boundaries Commission report, this district lost the town of Port Hawkesbury to Cape Breton-Richmond.

In 2021, the district regained Port Hawkesbury from the old district of Cape Breton-Richmond. Member Elected Election Date Party Elected MacMaster, Allan Gerard 17-Aug-2021 Progressive Conservative
