Since its creation, the riding has been a provincial bellwether in federal elections. No party has ever carried this riding without winning the most seats in Quebec.

Geography

The riding, in the Quebec region of Capitale-Nationale, consists of the central part of Quebec City, including the borough of La Cité and the southern part of the borough of Les Rivières, as well as the parish municipality of Notre-Dame-des-Anges.

The neighbouring ridings are Louis-Hébert, Louis-Saint-Laurent, Charlesbourg—Haute-Saint-Charles, Beauport—Limoilou, and Bellechasse—Les Etchemins—Lévis.

The riding gained a small fraction of territory from Louis-Hébert as a result of the 2012 electoral redistribution.
