Surrey-Fleetwood is a provincial electoral district in British Columbia, Canada established by the Electoral Districts Act, 2008. It will come into effect upon the next dissolution of the BC Legislature, currently scheduled for April 2009, and will first be contested in the ensuing election. Surrey Fleetwood is an amalgamation of mostly Surrey-Tynehead along with portions of Surrey-Green Timbers, Surrey-Newton and Surrey-Cloverdale.[1]

Member of Legislative Assembly

On account of the realignment of electoral boundaries, most incumbents did not represent the entirety of their listed district during the preceding legislative term. Dave Hayer, British Columbia Liberal Party was initially elected during the 2001 election and 2005 election to the Surrey-Tynehead riding.[1] Jagrup Brar of the New Democrats was elected in the 2009 election in this newly re-districted riding.
