Pickering—Uxbridge was created by the 2012 federal electoral boundaries redistribution and was legally defined in the 2013 representation order. It came into effect upon the call of the 42nd Canadian federal election, scheduled for 19 October 2015.[2] It was created out of parts of Pickering—Scarborough East, Ajax—Pickering and Durham.[3]
Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution the riding was renamed Pickering—Brooklin. The new riding lost the Township of Uxbridge to the new York—Durham riding, and gained the portion of the Town of Whitby north of Highway 407 from the Whitby riding. It was contested under the new name and boundaries in the 2025 federal election.[4][5][6]
