Humboldt was a federal electoral district in Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1904 to 1953. When it was created in 1903, it was part of the Northwest Territories. When Saskatchewan became a province in 1905, Humboldt riding was in that province. It was abolished in 1952 when it was redistributed into Humboldt—Melfort, Mackenzie and Rosthern ridings.
