High Park (electoral District)
High Park was a federal electoral district in the west-end of the old City of Toronto, in Ontario, Canada. It was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1935 to 1972. It was created in 1933 and abolished in 1972, when it was redistributed into the newly created High Park—Humber Valley district, which shared virtually the same boundaries as High Park's last incarnation.

“I laugh at the lore and pride of man

Borrow a child and stay in the house all day with the child,
or go to the public park with the child, and take the child
to the welfare office and cry and say your man left you and
be humble and wear your dress and your smile, and don’t talk
back ...”
—Susan Griffin (b. 1943)
