Eugène first ran for the Canadian House of Commons in the 1962 Canadian federal election against Isabel Hardie; he lost the hotly contested election by only 300 votes. He faced Isabel just a year later in the 1963 Canadian federal election, this time defeating her.

Eugène served in the House of Commons for one term, before getting defeated himself in the 1965 Canadian federal election by Robert Orange.

Eugène attempted a comeback in the 1974 Canadian federal election running in the Saskatoon—Humboldt electoral district in Saskatchewan, he was defeated by incumbent Otto Lang.
