Burnaby-Deer Lake is a former provincial electoral district in British Columbia, Canada, in use from 2009 to 2024.
Initially established by the Electoral Districts Act, 2008, it was first contested in the 2009 general election, in which BC New Democrat (BC NDP) member Kathy Corrigan was elected its first MLA; Anne Kang, also a BC NDP politician, won the seat in 2017 after Corrigan decided not to run for re-election that year.
Under the 2021 British Columbia electoral redistribution that took effect for the 2024 general election, the majority of the riding was reallocated to the new, larger district of Burnaby Centre, with the southwestern portion being redistributed to Burnaby South-Metrotown.
