'''Toronto–Danforth''' (formerly '''Broadview–Greenwood''') is a federal [[electoral district (Canada)|electoral district]] in Ontario, Canada, that has been represented in the [[House of Commons of Canada]] since 1979. It lies to the east of [[Downtown Toronto]]. 

Historically, the riding has tilted to the left, particularly since the 1990s. Most election contests take place between the NDP and the [[Liberal Party of Canada|Liberal Party]]. Even with the end of vote-splitting on the centre-right, the [[Conservative Party of Canada|Conservatives]] are almost nonexistent in the riding; no Conservative candidate has crossed the 15 percent mark, until recently in the [[2025 Canadian federal election|2025 federal election]], Conservative candidate Ashik Hussain finished second place with 19% of the vote, ahead of NDP candidate Clare Hacksel.

The NDP held the riding for the first nine years of its existence before Liberal [[Dennis Mills]] won the seat in [[1988 Canadian federal election|1988]] and held it during the long period of Liberal dominance of the federal scene. He was unseated in [[2004 Canadian federal election|2004]] by Layton, who had previously run against Mills in [[1997 Canadian federal election|1997]]. Layton held the seat until his death on August 22, 2011. The seat was vacant until a by-election on March 29, 2012, which was won by NDP candidate and human rights lawyer [[Craig Scott (politician)|Craig Scott]].  However, Scott was narrowly defeated by Liberal [[Julie Dabrusin]] in the 2015 election in a major upset.

==Demographics==

Toronto–Danforth includes an array of ethnicities, including large Greek, Chinese, and South Asian communities, many of the latter of whom are Muslims. It has the highest percentage of ethnic Greeks among all Toronto ridings (7.3%).<ref>{{Cite web |last=Government of Canada |first=Statistics Canada |date=2022-02-09 |title=Profile table, Census Profile, 2021 Census of Population - Toronto--Danforth [Federal electoral district (2013 Representation Order)], Ontario |url=https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2021/dp-pd/prof/index.cfm?Lang=E |access-date=2023-03-06 |website=www12.statcan.gc.ca}}</ref>

==History==

The riding was created in 1976 as "Broadview—Greenwood" from parts of [[Broadview (federal electoral district)|Broadview]] and [[York East (federal electoral district)|York East]] and a small part of [[Greenwood (Ontario federal electoral district)|Greenwood]].

It consisted initially of the part of the Municipality of [[Metropolitan Toronto]] bounded on the south by Queen Street East, on the west by the Don River, and on the east and north by a line drawn north from Queen Street along Jones Avenue, east along Gerrard Street East, north along [[Greenwood Avenue, Toronto|Greenwood Avenue]], west along O'Connor Drive, north along Don Mills Road to the Don River.

In 1987, it was redefined to consist of the part of the City of Toronto and the Borough of [[East York]] bounded on the west by the Don River, on the south by Queen Street, and on the east and north by a line drawn from the lake north along Leslie Street, east along Queen Street East, north along Greenwood Avenue, east along Danforth Avenue, north along Coxwell Avenue and Coxwell Boulevard, and west along Taylor Creek and the Don River East Branch to the Don River.

In 1996, it was defined to consist of the parts of the City of Toronto and the Borough of East York north along Leslie Street, east along Queen Street East, north along Greenwood Avenue, east along Gerrard Street East, north along Coxwell Avenue and Coxwell Boulevard, west along Taylor Creek, the Don River East Branch and the Don River, northwest along Millwood Road, southwest along the Canadian Pacific Railway and the eastern limit of the City of Toronto, south along the Don River to Toronto Harbour.

The name of the electoral district was changed in 2000 to "Toronto—Danforth" on the suggestion of [[Dennis Mills]], the riding's Member of Parliament. Many local citizens were upset at the name change, particularly because of the lack of public say in the matter. Layton sought neighbourhood input for another name change to the riding, but the name was not changed.

In 2003, it was given its current boundaries, which consist of the part of the City of Toronto bounded on the south by Lake Ontario and Toronto Harbour, on the east by Coxwell Avenue and Coxwell Boulevard, on the north by Taylor Creek and the Don River East Branch, and on the west by the Don River. This riding was unchanged after the [[Canadian federal electoral redistribution, 2012|2012 electoral redistribution]].
