Mississauga Goddam is a 2004 album by The Hidden Cameras.

The title is an allusion to Nina Simone's civil rights anthem "Mississippi Goddam" (from the album Nina Simone in Concert), suggesting suburbia (Mississauga is a suburb of Toronto) as the real battleground for LGBT equality.

The album was released on Rough Trade Records in the United Kingdom and EvilEvil in Canada.

A video for the title "I Believe in the Good of Life", was released. Directed by Joel Gibb, starred band members Joel Gibb, Maggie MacDonald, Mike e.b., Lex Vaughn, Owen Pallett, and others, along with guest stars Tawny LeSabre, Keith Cole, Will Munro, and G.B. Jones.
