'''Grey—Bruce''' was a federal [[electoral district (Canada)|electoral district]] represented in the [[House of Commons of Canada]] from 1935 to 1968. It was located in the [[provinces and territories of Canada|province]] of [[Ontario]]. This [[Riding (division)|riding]] was created in 1933 from parts of [[Bruce South (federal electoral district)|Bruce South]] and [[Grey Southeast]] ridings.

It consisted of the townships of Artemesia, Bentinck, Egremont, Glenelg, Normanby, Proton and Sullivan in the county of Grey; and the townships of Brant, Carrick and Elderslie in the county of Bruce.

The electoral district was abolished in 1966 when it was redistributed between [[Bruce (electoral district)|Bruce]], [[Grey—Simcoe]] and [[Wellington—Grey]] ridings.
