History

Windsor—St. Clair was created in 1987 as "Windsor—Lake St. Clair" from parts of Essex—Windsor and Windsor—Walkerville ridings. In 1989, the riding's name was changed to "Windsor—St. Clair". It was also a provincial riding for the 1999 and 2003 Ontario provincial elections.

Windsor—Tecumseh was created in 2003 from parts of Essex and Windsor—St. Clair ridings.

This riding was left unchanged after the 2012 electoral redistribution.

Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution, this riding will be renamed Windsor—Tecumseh—Lakeshore at the first election held after approximately April 2024.[3] The riding will gain the part of Lakeshore north of the 401 and west of the Puce River (Pike Creek and Elmstead areas) from Essex.
