Bathurst is a former and newly upcoming provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick, Canada.
It was created in the 1967 redistribution when cities were separated from their counties and made independent districts. It was not changed in either the 1973 or 1994 redistributions but in 2006 it lost some territory to the neighbouring riding of Nepisiguit.[1] It was abolished in the 2013 redistribution.In its final form, it consisted of the city of Bathurst except for the part south of Route 11 and east of the Nepisiguit River. It was bordered on the northeast by the riding of Nigadoo-Chaleur, on north by Chaleur Bay, and elsewhere by the riding of Nepisiguit.
The riding was a traditional Liberal seat in the province for most of its existence.
Following the 2023 redistribution, the riding will be re-created out of parts of Bathurst West-Beresford, Bathurst East-Nepisiguit-Saint-Isidore and Restigouche-Chaleur.
