Laval—Two Mountains ({{langx|fr|Laval—Deux-Montagnes}}) was a federal electoral district in the province of Quebec, Canada that was represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 1917 to 1949.

This riding was created in 1914 from Laval and Two Mountains ridings.

It initially consisted of:

  • All the parishes, municipalities and towns comprised in the electoral district of Laval and situated on Isle Jésus, and
  • the electoral district of Two Mountains.

In 1924, it was defined as consisting of the Counties of Laval and Two Mountains.

In 1933, it was redefined as consisting of:

  • the county of Laval, excluding the municipalities of Pont-des-Rapides; and
  • the county of Two-Mountains, excluding the part north of the North River comprised in the municipality of St-Colomban and the northern part of the municipality of St-Canut.

The riding was abolished in 1947 when it was redistributed between Laval and Argenteuil—Deux-Montagnes ridings.
