Moose Jaw—Lake Centre—Lanigan is a federal electoral district in Saskatchewan, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 2015. It encompasses a portion of Saskatchewan formerly included in the electoral districts of Blackstrap, Palliser, Regina—Lumsden—Lake Centre, Souris—Moose Mountain and Saskatoon—Humboldt.[3]

Moose Jaw—Lake Centre—Lanigan 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 October 19, 2015.[4]

While the city of Moose Jaw has usually voted for the New Democratic Party, the rural areas are among the most conservative in Saskatchewan and the country.
