Parkdale—High Park was a federal electoral district in Ontario, Canada from 1976 to 2025. It was represented in the House of Commons of Canada starting with the 1979 Canadian general election. The district was created during the 1976 electoral boundaries redistribution from parts of Parkdale, High Park—Humber Valley, Davenport and Spadina districts. The first Member of Parliament (MP) was Liberal Party member, Jesse Flis, and the final one was Arif Virani, also a Liberal member.

According to the 2016 census, Parkdale—High Park has the lowest percentage of visible minorities (26.2%) among all City of Toronto ridings; it also has the highest percentage of people of Irish (20.0%), German (9.8%), and French (8.9%) ethnic origin of all City of Toronto ridings.

After the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution process, the 2023 representation orders renamed the electoral district Taiaiako'n—Parkdale—High Park. Redistribution expanded the district, made up mostly of the old Parkdale—High Park, the southern portion of York South—Weston and a small portion of Spadina—Fort York in the southeast. The new electoral district came into effect upon the calling of the 2025 Canadian federal election.
