Esquimalt-Colwood is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, Canada. Created under the 2021 British Columbia electoral redistribution, the riding was first contested in the 2024 British Columbia general election.[1] It was created out of parts of Esquimalt-Metchosin and a part of Victoria-Beacon Hill.
It has been held by Darlene Rotchford from the NDP since 2024.[2]
The district comprises four municipalities in an arc around Esquimalt Harbour and the Royal Roads — the city of Colwood, the town of View Royal and the township of Esquimalt — plus the neighbourhood of Victoria West in the city of Victoria.
