Geography

The district includes the neighbourhood of Hochelaga-Maisonneuve and the western part of the neighbourhood of Longue-Pointe in the Borough of Mercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, the eastern part of the neighbourhood of Rosemont in the Borough of Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie and the eastern part of the neighbourhood of Centre-Sud in the Borough of Ville-Marie.

Political geography

Until 2011, this working class riding strongly favoured the Bloc, which in 2008, won most polls.

The New Democrats placed second in the 2009 by-election; as in much of Quebec, Bloc support collapsed in the 2011 election and the New Democrats swept the riding. The NDP held onto the riding in the 2015 election. Since 2019 it has been held by the liberals with ever increasing margins.

History

Summarize
Perspective

The electoral district of Hochelaga was created in 1867 covering the entire eastern part of the Island of Montreal. In 1976, it was renamed "Sainte-Marie". In 1981, it was renamed "Montreal—Sainte-Marie".

The riding was abolished in 1987 when it was redistributed into Laurier—Sainte-Marie and Rosemont ridings.

"Hochelaga" riding was recreated in 2003 from parts of Hochelaga—Maisonneuve and Laurier—Sainte-Marie ridings.

This riding lost territory to Laurier—Sainte-Marie and Saint-Léonard—Saint-Michel, and gained territory from La Pointe-de-l'Île and Honoré-Mercier during the 2012 electoral redistribution.

Following the 2022 federal electoral redistribution the riding will be renamed Hochelaga—Rosemont-Est. The boundary with Saint-Léonard—Saint-Michel along Rue Bélanger will move to the borough boundary between Rosemont—La-Petite-Patrie and Saint-Léonard.[3] These changes came into effect upon the calling of the 2025 Canadian federal election.
