Chilliwack-Kent is a former provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, Canada that existed from 2001 to 2009 and again from 2017 to 2024.
Between 2009 and 2017, it was replaced by the Chilliwack-Hope riding. In the 2015 redistribution, the eastern portion of Chilliwack-Hope was adjusted and the name Chilliwack-Kent was brought back into service and was contested in the 2017 general election. Under the 2021 British Columbia electoral redistribution that took effect for the 2024 general election, riding was eliminated: Kent and other communities north of the Fraser River were redistributed to Fraser-Nicola, lands between the Fraser and Trans-Canada Highway were redistributed to Chilliwack North, and the remaining southern portion of the riding formed the new electoral district of Chilliwack-Cultus Lake.[1]
