Calgary Northeast was a federal electoral district in Alberta, Canada, that was represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 1988 to 2015. It was an urban riding in the city of Calgary.

History

This riding was created in 1987 from territory that had been in the ridings of Calgary East and Bow River, which were abolished.

In 2003, parts of this electoral district were transferred to the new Calgary Centre-North riding.

The riding was abolished in 2013. The bulk of the riding became Calgary Skyview, while a small portion was transferred to Calgary Forest Lawn, which largely replaced Calgary East.
