Description |
This suburban riding is located just north of Montreal on the St.Lawrence River. It contains the regional county municipality of L'Assomption, as well as Repentigny, Charlemagne, Lachenaie and Mascouche. Given its proximity to Montreal, many residents work outside the riding.
Manufacturing is the main industry, followed by retail trade. The average family income is $65,797 with unemployment of five per cent. Almost 97 per cent of the population lists French as their mother tongue, while one per cent cites English. The total immigrant population is two per cent.
In the redistribution of 2004, 47 per cent of Repentigny was combined with 45 per cent of Berthier-Montcalm to the north. In 1996, the name was changed to Repentigny and the riding was created from 70 per cent of Terrebonne riding. The riding of Terrebonne was established in 1867.
Population: 103,977
