LaSalle—Émard—Verdun
Federal electoral district in Quebec, Canada
LaSalle—Émard—Verdun is a federal electoral district in Montreal , Quebec . It was created by the 2012 federal electoral boundaries redistribution and was legally defined in the 2013 representation order. It came into effect upon the call of the 2015 Canadian federal election , held on 19 October 2015.[ 3]
History
The riding was created out of parts of Jeanne-Le Ber (51%) and LaSalle—Émard (49%) plus a small section of territory between the Lachine Canal and the Le Sud-Ouest borough boundary taken from Westmount—Ville-Marie and an adjacent uninhabited section from Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine .[ 4] [ 5] LaSalle—Verdun .[ 6]
The former member of Parliament for the LaSalle—Émard riding, Hélène Leblanc , sought reelection in the new riding for the NDP,[ 7] Tyrone Benskin lost the party's nomination in the neighbouring riding of Ville-Marie–Le Sud-Ouest–Île-des-Sœurs .
David Lametti of the Liberal Party defeated Leblanc in the riding's first election in 2015. He held the seat until resigning in 2024.
Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution , the riding will gain the area east of Av. 90e East and south of Rue Airlie from Dorval—Lachine—LaSalle . This will take effect at the next Canadian federal election .
Geography
The riding includes the borough of Verdun (excluding Nuns' Island ), most of the Sault-Saint-Louis area of the borough of LaSalle , along with the neighbourhoods of Angrignon , Ville-Émard and Côte-Saint-Paul in the Le Sud-Ouest borough.
In the 2019 and 2021 elections, the Liberals won throughout the riding, but were the strongest in LaSalle, the only part of the district where they won a majority of the vote in both elections. The Bloc vote is concentrated more in the central part of the riding, while the NDP is particularly strong in the Wellington-de-l'Église neighbourhood of Verdun.
