Papineau (formerly Papineau—Saint-Denis and Papineau—Saint-Michel ) is a federal electoral district in Montreal , Quebec , Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 1948. Its population in 2006 was 101,019. Justin Trudeau , who is currently Prime Minister of Canada and Leader of the Liberal Party , has represented the riding since the 2008 federal election . Trudeau became Liberal leader in a 2013 leadership election , succeeding Bob Rae , and prime minister when the Liberals returned to government in the 2015 Canadian federal election , succeeding Conservative leader Stephen Harper .
The name of the riding comes from a street in the Villeray neighbourhood, named after Joseph Papineau .
At nine square kilometres, it covers the second smallest area of any federal riding in Canada, after Toronto Centre .[3] Linguistically, 45% of residents list French as their mother tongue, 8% list English, and 47% list neither English nor French, with large groups speaking Spanish, Italian, Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, Pashtu, Bengali, Greek and Arabic. The total immigrant population is 40 percent.[4]
Geography [ ]
The district includes the neighbourhoods of Villeray and Park Extension , and the southern part of the old city of Saint-Michel in the Borough of Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension .
The southeast corner of the riding borders the Outremont riding, which was most recently held by Tom Mulcair , the former leader of the New Democratic Party.
Political geography [ ]
Papineau, despite its small size, is a very divided riding. The riding spans the former linguistic divide of the city, Saint Laurent Boulevard . South of the riding is the neighbourhood of Park Extension, which is very Liberal . The central part of the riding, around Villeray, was Bloc Québécois territory for almost two decades before swinging heavily to the NDP in the 2011 federal election. And François-Perreault district, in the south of Saint-Michel, is considered as swing territory between the Liberals and the NDP. The district of Saint-Michel, which is part of neighbouring Saint-Léonard—Saint-Michel riding to the northeast of Papineau, leans to the Liberals.[citation needed ]
Except for the years 2006 to 2008, when it was held by Vivian Barbot of the Bloc, the seat has been in Liberal hands since 1953.
Demographics [ ]
According to the Canada 2016 Census
Twenty most common mother tongue languages (2016) : 49.7% French, 6.6% Spanish, 6.5% English, 5.9% Arabic, 4.2% Greek, 3.4% Italian, 2.7% Vietnamese, 2.4% Creole languages, 2.2% Punjabi, 2.1% Portuguese, 1.8% Bengali, 1.8% Urdu, 1.5% Tamil, 1.1% Cantonese, 1.0% Gujarati, 0.6% Mandarin, 0.6% Kabyle, 0.5% Khmer, 0.5% Turkish, 0.3% Polish, 0.3% Russian[5]
History [ ]
The electoral district of Papineau was created in 1947 from parts of the Hochelaga , Mercier , St. James and Saint-Denis ridings.
It was renamed Papineau-Saint-Michel in 1987 and Papineau-Saint-Denis in 1994. It was shortened back to "Papineau" in 2003.
This riding gained territory from Outremont and Saint-Léonard—Saint-Michel during the 2012 electoral redistribution .
