Shuswap is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, Canada.

It is the successor riding to the old Salmon Arm riding. For other historical and current federal and provincial ridings in the Shuswap-Kamloops-North Okanagan, please see Kamloops (provincial electoral district), Kamloops (federal electoral district) and Okanagan (electoral districts). All ridings in the southern BC region are "descendants" of the original Yale provincial riding.

Under the 2021 British Columbia electoral redistribution the riding will be renamed Salmon Arm-Shuswap.[1]
