Lakeside is a provincial electoral district of Manitoba, Canada. It is located to the immediate northwest of the city of Winnipeg.
Traditionally a rural riding, Lakeside has become more urban in recent years (as a result of both electoral redistribution and changes in demography). All the same, agriculture accounted for 17 per cent of the riding's industry in 1999. The riding is bordered to the north by Interlake, to the west by Portage la Prairie, to the south by Morris and to the east by Gimli. It also borders the city of Winnipeg to the southeast.
There are no major urban centres in the riding. Communities include Argyle, Balmoral, Rosser, Gunton, Stonewall, Stony Mountain, Teulon, Warren, Woodlands, and Inwood.
Lakeside's population in 1996 was 19,473. The average family income in 1999 was Can$49,774, with an unemployment rate of 6.10 per cent. Eight per cent of the population is of a German background, and 8 per cent are aboriginal.
Lakeside was created by provincial redistribution in 1886. It has traditionally elected representatives of agrarian interests, both of the Liberal and Progressive Conservative parties. It is presently a comfortably safe seat for the Tories, who have held it without interruption since 1969. Since 1922, only four men have held the seat.
Lakeside's best-known Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA), Douglas Campbell, represented the constituency for 47 years, first as a Progressive, then as a Liberal-Progressive, then as a Liberal—longer than anyone in provincial history. He served as premier from 1949 to 1958.
