- Source: History of the provincial electoral map of Quebec
The province of Quebec, in Canada, elects members of Parliament at the federal level and members of the National Assembly at the provincial level. Electoral districts (known as "electoral divisions" or circonscriptions) at the provincial level have evolved over the years.
1867
The Legislative Assembly of Quebec was created, with 65 seats.
The electoral districts for Quebec in 1867 were the same for the Legislative Assembly of Quebec and the federal House of Commons; they were the districts already in place for the pre-Confederation Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada. (s. 40.2 and 80 of the Constitution Act 1867)
It would be renamed the National Assembly on December 31, 1968.
