Highway 19 is a provincially maintained highway in southwestern Ontario, Canada. Highway 19 currently runs from Tillsonburg north to a point near Ingersoll.

The total length of Highway 19 is presently 18.8 km, which is very similar to its original length in the 1930s (starting at Highway 2 in the north, and ending at Highway 3 in the south).

Highway 19 travels through the following municipalities: Ostrander, Mount Elgin and Salford. The southern end begins at Tillsonburg's northern town limits,Fact|date=September 2007 while the northern end terminates 400 metres north of Highway 401, south of Ingersoll's town limits.

Highway 19 is entirely situated in Oxford County.

Prior to 1998, the road's southern terminus was at Port Burwell at Lake Erie, while the northern terminus reached Highway 86 east of Listowel. The highway's former extent coincided with Highway 7 between an intersection southeast of St. Mary's and Stratford. Today, the Port Burwell to Tillsonburg segment is mostly Elgin County Road 19, with a short segment in Norfolk County immediately south of Tillsonburg. The Ingersoll to Highway 7 segment is now Oxford County Road 119, while the segment north of Stratford is Perth County Road 119, then Perth County Road 131 through Milverton.
