Saint-Léonard—Saint Michel (formerly Saint-Léonard) is a federal electoral district in Quebec, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 1988. Its population in 2011 was 108,811.

The district includes the Borough of Saint Leonard, and the neighbourhood of Saint-Michel-Nord and the eastern part of the neighbourhood of Saint-Michel in the Borough of Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension.

"Saint-Léonard" riding was first created in 1976 from parts of Maisonneuve—Rosemont, Mercier and Saint-Michel ridings. The name of the riding was changed in 1977 to Saint-Léonard—Anjou before an election was held. It consisted of the City of Saint-Léonard, the Town of Anjou, and part of the City of Montreal.

The neighbouring ridings are Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie, Papineau, Ahuntsic, Bourassa, Honoré-Mercier, and Hochelaga.

The current electoral district was created as "Saint-Léonard" riding in 1987 from parts of Gamelin and Saint-Léonard—Anjou ridings. In 1996, its name was changed to "Saint-Léonard—Saint-Michel".
