## Geography

The district includes parts of west-end Toronto, and includes the neighbourhoods of Fairbank, Oakwood-Vaughan, St. Clair Gardens, Corso Italia, Dovercourt Village, Bloordale Village, Bloorcourt Village, Brockton Village, the Junction Triangle and the western part of Rua Acores.

## History

The federal electoral district was created in 1933 from parts of Parkdale and Toronto Northwest ridings.
The federal riding of Davenport has been one of the most consistently Liberal ridings in Canada over the last century.
In 1958, Progressive Conservative Member of Parliament Douglas Morton was elected. Since then, Liberals Walter Gordon and Charles Caccia (who himself held the seat for nearly 40 years) won the seat by increasing margins, finally culminating in a 17,500-vote majority in 1993. Meanwhile, the opposition parties in the constituency were shifting, and the New Democratic Party candidate beat the Progressive Conservative or Conservative candidate in every election since 1979.
In late 2003, Charles Caccia lost the Liberal nomination for the seat to local city councillor Mario Silva, who then went on to win the election and serve as Davenport's Member of Parliament.
In 2011, Andrew Cash of the New Democratic Party won the seat, becoming the first non-Liberal in 49 years to represent the riding. In 2015, Cash was defeated by Liberal candidate Julie Dzerowicz, who became the first female Member of Parliament for Davenport. Dzerowicz ran for re-election in 2019 and won, again defeating Andrew Cash.
This riding lost a fraction of territory to Toronto—St. Paul's during the 2012 electoral redistribution.
Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution, the riding will gain the area south of Eglinton Avenue and east of the CPR from York South—Weston (Keelesdale-Eglinton West), the area south of Vaughan Road and west of Winona Drive from Toronto—St. Paul's (in Oakwood Village), and the area north of Queen Street and west of Ossington Avenue (in Beaconsfield Village) from Spadina—Fort York. These changes will come into effect upon the calling of the 2025 Canadian federal election.
