Sault Ste. Marie—Algoma

2015–2025 boundaries

In the 2012 federal electoral redistribution, this riding was redefined, losing St. Joseph Island, Macdonald, Meredith and Aberdeen Additional, Laird, Tarbutt, Johnson, Plummer Additional, Bruce Mines and a portion of Unorganized North Algoma to Algoma—Manitoulin—Kapuskasing. It was then defined as:

"Consisting of that part of the Territorial District of Algoma described as follows: commencing at the intersection of the international boundary between Canada and the United States of America with the southeasterly corner of the Territorial District of Thunder Bay; thence N45°00'E in a straight line to the intersection of the northern shoreline of Lake Superior with the northerly boundary of the geographic Township of Peever; thence easterly along the northerly boundary of the geographic townships of Peever and Home to the Montreal River; thence generally easterly along said river to the easterly limit of the Territorial District of Algoma; thence southerly and easterly along the limit of said territorial district to the easterly boundary of the geographic Township of Bracci; thence southerly along said boundary and the easterly boundary of the geographic townships of Gaudry, Nahwegezhic, Lamming, Hughes, Curtis, Gillmor and McMahon to the northerly boundary of the geographic Township of Aberdeen; thence westerly along said boundary to the northerly limit of the Township of MacDonald, Meredith and Aberdeen Additional; thence generally westerly along said limit to the international boundary between Canada and the United States of America; thence generally westerly and northwesterly along said boundary to the point of commencement."^[4]

Current boundaries

After the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution taking effect at the 2025 election, this riding was greatly expanded, taking most of rural Algoma District from Algoma—Manitoulin—Kapuskasing, and was renamed Sault Ste. Marie—Algoma. As of the 2025 election, it consists of: the cities of Elliot Lake and Sault Ste. Marie, the towns of Blind River, Bruce Mines, Spanish, and Thessalon, as well as the municipalities of Huron Shores and Wawa. It also covers several townships, such as Dubreuilville, Hilton, and White River, and the village of Hilton Beach. Additionally, it includes the Unorganized South East and North Algoma Districts, with a specific exclusion in North Algoma. ^[3]
