Chapleau (electoral district)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chapleau was a federal electoral district in Quebec, Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1935 to 1968. It is currently a Quebec provincial riding that includes the majority of the Gatineau region.
This riding was created in 1933 from parts of Berthier—Maskinongé, Champlain, Joliette, L'Assomption—Montcalm, Pontiac, and Three Rivers and St. Maurice ridings.
It was abolished in 1967 when it was redistributed into Abitibi, Berthier, Champlain, Portneuf and Villeneuve ridings.
A different Chapleau riding existed from 1987-1988 in a different part of Quebec. It was renamed in 1988 to Gatineau—La Lièvre.
