North Vancouver was a provincial electoral district in the Canadian province of British Columbia. It first appeared on the hustings in 1916 and at the time of its creation included West Vancouver as well as North Vancouver. Prior to its creation the North Shore had been part of the Vancouver riding..

The North Vancouver riding last appeared in the election of 1963, after which it was partitioned into North Vancouver-Capilano, North Vancouver-Seymour, and West Vancouver-Howe Sound. This area is represented today by North Vancouver-Seymour and North Vancouver-Lonsdale. The Lonsdale riding covers an area similar to North Vancouver-Capilano. West Vancouver-Howe Sound has become West Vancouver-Capilano and West Vancouver-Garibaldi. The latter includes areas formerly part of the old Lillooet riding West Vancouver-Capilano includes western areas of North Vancouver formerly part of North Vancouver-Capilano.
