Mississauga Goddam is a 2004 album by The Hidden Cameras.

The title is an allusion to Nina Simone's civil rights anthem "Mississippi Goddam" (from the album Nina Simone in Concert), suggesting suburbia (Mississauga is a suburb of Toronto) as the real battleground for LGBT equality.

The album was released on Rough Trade Records in the United Kingdom and EvilEvil in Canada.
