Mississauga East—Cooksville () is a federal electoral district in Ontario, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 2004.
History
It was created in 2003 from parts of Mississauga Centre and Mississauga East ridings.
Following the 2012 redistribution, the riding will include parts of Mississauga—Brampton South and Mississauga South for the next election. The northern Burnhamthorpe boundary would change to Eglinton. This would mean that Rockwood Village would move from Mississauga—Brampton South to the "Mississauga East-Cooksville" riding.
It consisted of the part of the City of Mississauga east of a line drawn from north to south along the Queensway, Mavis Road, Central Parkway East, HWY 403 and Eglington Avenue East. It includes the neighbourhood of Cooksville, from which the riding derives part of its name.
