Nathaniel B. Erskine-Smith[3] MP (born June 15, 1984) is a Canadian politician who is the member of Parliament (MP) for Beaches—East York. A member of the Liberal Party, Erskine-Smith was elected to the House of Commons in the 2015 federal election. Before entering politics, Erskine-Smith was a commercial litigation lawyer. In 2023, Erskine-Smith was a candidate in the 2023 Ontario Liberal Party leadership election, in which he ultimately came second to Bonnie Crombie with 46% of the vote, after third place candidate Yasir Naqvi asked his supporters to select Erskine-Smith as their number two choice under the terms of their agreement to block Crombie. [4][5] The strategy failed, and Crombie won with 53.40% of the vote.

Erskine-Smith announced in December 2023 that he would not be standing in the next federal election, expected in 2025.[6]
