Cardwell, a federal electoral district in the Canadian province of Ontario, was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1867 to 1904. Cardwell is sometimes also considered one of Ontario's historic counties, as Cardwell was listed in some post-Confederation census records as a county of residence.
