Nanaimo-North Cowichan is a former provincial electoral district in British Columbia, Canada, in use from 2009 to 2024.

It was established by the Electoral Districts Act, 2008 and first contested in the 2009 election. Under the 2021 redistribution that took effect from the 2024 election, a substantial reorganization of electoral boundaries in the Nanaimo and mid-Island area saw Nanaimo-North Cowichan dissolved, with its territory split between the districts of Cowichan Valley, Ladysmith-Oceanside and Nanaimo-Gabriola Island.[1]
