Summary: Economy Minister Bill Boyd, first elected to the legislature 25 years ago, seeks another term in Kindersley.

Boundaries: Situated on the province's western border, the electoral district is centred around Kindersley, but stretches as far south as the South Saskatchewan River, as far east as Landis, and as far north as Macklin.

Last Election: Boyd defeated NDP candidate Peter Walker by over 3500 votes, 80-16 per cent—his highest margin of victory in four wins.
