From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Laurier—Outremont was a federal electoral district in Quebec, Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1917 to 1935.

In 1924, it was redefined to consist of the city of Outremont, and the part of the city of Montreal bounded by a line starting from the north-eastern boundary of the city of Outremont, following Mount Royal Avenue, Henri Julien Avenue, Mozart Street, Drolet Street, the extension of Isabeau Street. St. Lawrence Boulevard, Baby Street, the Canadian Pacific Railway track, Atlantic Avenue, to the northern limit of the city of Outremont, and along that boundary to Mount Royal Avenue.
The electoral district was abolished in 1933 when it was divided into Laurier and Outremont ridings.
