Grenville was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly of the Parliament of the Province of Canada, in Canada West. Based on Grenville County, it was located on the north shore of the Saint Lawrence River, east of Lake Ontario. It was created in 1841, upon the establishment of the Province of Canada by the union of Upper Canada and Lower Canada. Grenville was represented by one member in the Legislative Assembly. It was later split into two ridings, in a redistribution.
