Winnipeg South Centre (French: Winnipeg-Centre-Sud) is a federal electoral district in Manitoba, Canada, that has been represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1925 to 1979 and since 1988.
The district includes the neighbourhoods of Tuxedo, Linden woods, Sir John Franklin, River Heights, Osborne Village, Crescentwood, Earl Grey, Rockwood, Grant Park, Riverview, Lord Roberts, Beaumont, Wildwood, Fort Garry, Maybank, and the western half of the Pembina Strip in the city of Winnipeg.
The electoral district was originally created in 1924 from Winnipeg South and Winnipeg Centre ridings. It generally consisted of the part of the city west of the Red River and south of the Assiniboine River. In 1952, it gained parts the Rural Municipality (and later city) of St. James. In 1966, it gained parts the municipalities of Assiniboia, and Charleswood, and the Town of Tuxedo.
