Megantic-Compton is a former provincial electoral district in the Estrie region of Quebec, Canada. As of its final election, it included the municipalities of East Angus, Cookshire-Eaton, Lac-Mégantic, Weedon, Lac-Drolet and Chartierville.

It was created for the 1973 election from parts of Frontenac, Compton, and Wolfe electoral districts; despite the name, it did not include any part of the territory of the former Mégantic electoral district. Its final election was in 2008. It disappeared in the 2012 election and the successor electoral district was the recreated Mégantic.{{cite web |url=http://www.electionsquebec.qc.ca/documents/pdf/DGE-6258-VA.pdf |title=The electoral map of Québec 2011: Final Report |author=Commission de la représentation électorale |author-link=Commission de la représentation électorale |date=January 2012 |access-date=March 21, 2012}}
