Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo (formerly known as Kamloops—Thompson) is a former federal electoral district in the province of British Columbia, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 2004 to 2025. While the riding covers a large area, about three quarters of the population in the district live in the city of Kamloops.

History

This district was created as Kamloops—Thompson in 2003 from Kamloops, Thompson and Highland Valleys riding and small parts of Cariboo—Chilcotin and Prince George—Bulkley Valley ridings.

In 2004, the district was renamed "Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo".

The 2012 federal electoral boundaries redistribution concluded that the electoral boundaries of Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo should be adjusted, and a modified electoral district of the same name will be contested in future elections.{{Citation|url=http://www.redecoupage-federal-redistribution.ca/content.asp?section=bc&dir=now/reports&document=index&lang=e|title=Final Report – British Columbia|access-date=August 28, 2013|archive-date=March 20, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180320130821/http://www.redecoupage-federal-redistribution.ca/content.asp?section=bc&dir=now%2Freports&document=index&lang=e|url-status=dead}} The redefined Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo loses a portion of its current territory consisting of the community of Valemount and area to Prince George—Peace River—Northern Rockies but is otherwise unchanged. These new boundaries were legally defined in the 2013 representation order, which came into effect upon the call of the 42nd Canadian federal election, scheduled for October 2015.{{Citation|url=http://www.redecoupage-federal-redistribution.ca/content.asp?section=info&document=index&dir=overview&lang=e|title=Timeline for the Redistribution of Federal Electoral Districts|access-date=August 28, 2013|archive-date=April 18, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170418222609/http://redecoupage-federal-redistribution.ca/content.asp?section=info&document=index&dir=overview&lang=e|url-status=dead}}

Under the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution the riding was replaced by Kamloops—Thompson—Nicola.{{Cite web |date=2023-02-16 |title=Changes proposed for new Kamloops-Thompson-Nicola riding |url=https://www.wltribune.com/news/changes-proposed-for-new-kamloops-thompson-nicola-riding-5551268 |access-date=2024-04-23 |website=The Williams Lake Tribune |language=en}}
