West Toronto

"This article is about the defunct federal riding of West Toronto (1867-1903). For the historical village, town, and city of West Toronto (1884-1908), see The Junction."

West Toronto was a federal electoral district represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1867 to 1904. It was located in the City of Toronto, in the province of Ontario. It was created by the British North America Act of 1867. It was renamed Toronto West in 1903.

West Toronto was initially defined as consisting of St. John, St. Andrew, St. Patrick and St. George's Wards of Toronto. In 1872, St. John's Ward was excluded from the riding. In 1892, the riding was given an additional seat in the House of Commons so that its voters elected two Members of Parliament.
