Hamilton Centre (federal electoral district)

Hamilton Centre is a federal electoral district in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 2004.

History
It was created in 2003 from parts of Hamilton East, Hamilton West and Ancaster—Dundas—Flamborough—Aldershot ridings. This riding lost territory to Hamilton West—Ancaster—Dundas and gained territory from Hamilton East—Stoney Creek during the 2012 electoral redistribution. Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution, the riding gained the remainder of the Strathcona neighbourhood from Hamilton West—Ancaster—Dundas, albeit an uninhabited portion consisting of Woodland Cemetery. It additionally gained the Homeside, Normanhurst, Bartonville, Hamilton, Glenview, and Rosedale neighbourhoods from Hamilton East—Stoney Creek. These changes came into effect upon the calling of the 2025 Canadian federal election. ==Geography==
