January 1894 Calgary municipal election

In addition, two members were elected as school trustees.

[1] This was the first election to take place after Calgary was officially incorporated as The City of Calgary under Chapter 33, Ordinance of North-West Territories on January 1, 1894.

The prior Town Charter required municipal elections to take place in December 1893, however the new City Charter came into effect in such a way as to prevent the election from occurring in December 1893, and would require the election to take place in December 1894.

[2] Voting rights were provided to any male, single woman, or widowed British subject over twenty-one years of age who are assessed on the last revised assessment roll with a minimum property value of $200.

Under Block Voting, the largest voting block often takes all the seats, leaving none to the other voters who might make up the majority of voters.
