Encyclopedia > Division of Canberra

The Division of Canberra is an Australian Electoral Division in the Australian Capital Territory. The division was created in 1974 from the southern half of the old Division of Australian Capital Territory. It is named for the city of Canberra, Australia's national capital, and includes the suburbs of Tuggeranong, Weston Creek and Woden Valley. For most of its history it has been a fairly safe seat for the Australian Labor Party, but it has been won by the Liberal Party several times, most recently at a 1995 by-election.
