Oakwood was located in York, which was previously part of Metropolitan Toronto and is now part of the City of Toronto. Oakwood was a fairly safe seat for the New Democratic Party for most of its existence, although the Liberals won in 1987 and 1995.

Tony Rizzo, elected in 1990, was forced to sit as an Independent MP for twenty months after it was disclosed that his construction firm had been charged with violating Ontario's labour code in 1989. He returned to caucus in 1992. The riding had large Italian and Portuguese communities, and there was a significant increase in Caribbean immigrants during the 1980s. (en)
