'''Stormont''' was a federal [[electoral district (Canada)|electoral district]] represented in the [[House of Commons of Canada]] from 1867 to 1882, 1904 to 1917, and 1925 to 1968. It was located in the eastern part of the [[provinces and territories of Canada|province]] of [[Ontario]].

It was created by the [[British North America Act of 1867]] as consisting of Stormont County. It was abolished in 1882 when it was merged with Cornwall riding into [[Cornwall and Stormont]].

It was re-created as a separate riding in 1903, consisting again of Stormont County. It was abolished in 1914 when it was redistributed between [[Durham (electoral district)|Durham]] and [[Glengarry and Stormont]] ridings.

It was re-created as a separate riding again in 1924 consisting again of Stormont County. In 1947, it was redefined to consist of the county of Stormont, including the city of Cornwall.

The electoral district was abolished in 1966 when it was merged into [[Stormont—Dundas]] riding.
