History

edit

The electoral district was created in 1933 from Bagot and St. Hyacinthe—Rouville ridings as "St. Hyacinthe—Bagot". In 1947, the name was changed to "Saint-Hyacinthe—Bagot".

In 1966, the riding was abolished. Parts of the riding were combined with parts of Chambly—Rouville and Richelieu—Verchères riding into a new riding named "Saint-Hyacinthe". Saint-Hyacinthe was renamed "Saint-Hyacinthe—Bagot" after the 1980 election.

After the resignation of Yvan Loubier on 21 February 2007, a by-election occurred on 17 September 2007.

This riding was not changed as a result of the 2012 electoral redistribution.

Following the 2022 federal electoral redistribution the riding will be renamed Saint-Hyacinthe—Bagot—Acton.[3]
