Toronto North, also known as North Toronto, was a provincial riding that was created in Toronto, Ontario in 1894. It was in use until 1914.
From 1894 to 1908 it elected a single MLA. In the 1908-1914 period it elected two members.
Prior to Toronto North's creation in 1894, the City of Toronto was represented as one single district that elected three members. In 1894 this district was split into four parts of which Toronto North was one. Toronto North occupied the northern part of the old Toronto district.
In 1914 the North Toronto district was abolished. The districts of Toronto East, Toronto North, Toronto South and Toronto West were replaced by Toronto Northeast, Toronto Northwest, Toronto Southwest and Toronto Southeast, which were constituted as two-member districts. Parkdale and Riverdale were created as single-member constituencies.
