The Three Hills-Airdrie electoral district was created in the 1993 electoral district re-distribution from the Three Hills and Drumheller electoral districts. It would only be contested once in the 1993 Alberta general election, and represented by Progressive Conservative MLA Carol Louise Haley. The district was dissolved in the 1997 electoral district re-distribution into the Airdrie-Rocky View and Olds-Didsbury-Three Hills electoral districts.[2]
