History
The riding of Mississauga—Erin Mills is largely the same as the old Mississauga–Erindale riding. It was renamed after the 2014 Ontario election as a part of a provincial riding redistribution process that saw new ridings created and several existing riding boundaries changed. The southeastern part of the old Mississauga—Erindale riding was moved into the new riding of Mississauga–Lakeshore. Harinder Takhar, who announced his retirement in April, represented the riding of Mississauga–Erindale for the Liberal Party since 2007 after serving as the MPP for the old riding of Mississauga Centre during the 2003-2007 term.
