St. Lawrence (electoral district)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

St. Lawrence was a federal electoral district in Quebec, Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1892 to 1917.

This riding was created in 1892 from parts of Montreal West and Montreal East ridings. It consisted of St. Louis and St. Lawrence wards in the city of Montreal. It was abolished in 1914 when it was redistributed into St. Lawrence—St. George and George-Étienne Cartier ridings.
