Lotbinière (Province of Canada electoral district)

Lotbinière was a historical electoral district in the Province of Canada. It was located in what is now Quebec. The riding existed for the legislative assembly elections held during the Province of Canada period, which spanned from 1841 to 1867.

The boundaries of the Lotbinière electoral district were based on the geographic area of the County of Lotbinière. The district elected one member to the Legislative Assembly.

Notable representatives of Lotbinière include individuals who significantly contributed to the political landscape of the era. Researching historical records would be needed to specifically list prominent members. The district played a role in the debates and decisions shaping the Province of Canada leading up to Confederation in 1867.

Following Confederation, the Province of Canada was divided into the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Consequently, the electoral district of Lotbinière was succeeded by a similarly named district, Lotbinière, within the new Province of Quebec. The legacy of the district continues through its association with the contemporary riding in the Quebec provincial legislature and the federal riding.
