Kanata—Carleton is a provincial electoral district in Ottawa, Ontario which was first contested in the 2018 provincial election.
The riding was created federally with the 2012 redistribution process. That same process was announced by the Ontario government, meaning the provincial ridings will follow a similar boundary division for the 2018 provincial election. The new riding contains almost all of the portion of the former Carleton—Mississippi Mills located in Ottawa, except for the portion south of Highway 7/Highway 417 that transferred Carleton. A small fraction came from Nepean—Carleton surrounding the Bridlewood neighbourhood.
The riding covers an area within a boundary defined as follows: Western limit of Ottawa starting at Highway 7. NE along Highway 7 to Highway 417. NE along Highway 417 to Maple Grove Road. NE along Maple Grove Road to the Carp River. SE along the Carp River to the SW section of Spearman Lane. NE along Spearman Lane to Terry Fox Drive. SE along Terry Fox to Hope Side Road.
