# Tisdale (provincial electoral district)

Tisdale was a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of the province of Saskatchewan, Canada, centred on the town of Tisdale, Saskatchewan. Created before the 4th Saskatchewan general election in 1917, this riding was dissolved and combined with the Melfort district (as Melfort-Tisdale) before the 12th Saskatchewan general election in 1952.
It is now part of the constituencies of Melfort and Carrot River Valley. Another provincial electoral district in the same area called "Kelsey-Tisdale" existed from 1975 to 1995.
