Yale-East
Encyclopedia
Yale-East was a provincial electoral district in the British Columbia legislature
that appeared only in the 1894, 1898 and 1900 elections. It and its sister ridings Yale-West
and Yale-North
were created from the older three-member Yale (provincial electoral district)
, which was one of the province's first twelve ridings as of 1871. For the 1903 election the riding-name Yale was restored on an adapted version of Yale-West
. The area of Yale-East is now part of various ridings in the Nicola, Similkameen
and Okanagan
areas.
