Kenora is a federal electoral district in Ontario, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 2004.
Of the federal electoral districts located in Ontario it is the largest by area, and the smallest by population. It encompasses most of Kenora District except for the eastern third, and a small section of the northwest corner of Thunder Bay District. It includes many remote First Nations reserves of extreme Northern Ontario. It succeeds the former federal riding of Kenora—Rainy River.
It consists of the part of the Territorial District of Kenora lying west of a line drawn due north from the northeast corner of the Territorial District of Thunder Bay (Albany River) to Hudson Bay; and the part of the Territorial District of Thunder Bay lying northwest of a linedrawn east from the western limit of the territorial district along the 6th Base Line, north along eastern limit of the townships of Bertrand, McLaurin, Furlonge, Fletcher and Bulmer, and due north to the northern limit of the territorial district.
The federal riding was created in 2003 from parts of the Kenora—Rainy River riding. This riding was left unchanged after the 2012 electoral redistribution. Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution, this riding will be renamed Kenora—Kiiwetinoong at the first election held after approximately April 2024.[3] It will subsequently lose Fort Hope 64, Neskantaga, Webequie, and Summer Beaver to Thunder Bay—Superior North.
