Red Deer North is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of Alberta, Canada.

Formerly an all-urban district, under the Alberta electoral boundary re-distribution of 2004 the constituency was expanded to include a small area outside the city limits, including the nearby town of Blackfalds. Within the city the constituency borders Red Deer-South at the Red Deer River, Taylor Drive, Ross Street, 30th Avenue and 55th Street. Clockwise from Red Deer-South, the district also borders Innisfail-Sylvan Lake, Rocky Mountain House and Lacombe-Ponoka.

The current MLA for this district is Progressive Conservative Mary Anne Jablonski. She won her bid for re-election in the district in the 27th Alberta general election.

On November 19, 2004 a Student Vote was conducted at participating Alberta schools to parallel the 2004 Alberta general election results. The vote was designed to educate students and simulate the electoral process for persons who have not yet reached the legal majority. The vote was conducted in 80 of the 83 provincial electoral districts with students voting for actual election candidates. Schools with a large student body that reside in another electoral district had the option to vote for candidates outside of the electoral district then where they were physically located.
