Riding profile
D'Arcy-McGee encompasses the Montreal Island municipalities of Hampstead and Côte St. Luc, as well as a couple of blocks of Montreal proper (from the borough of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce). The riding was created in 1965 and is one of 39 that didn't change in the 2011 boundary revisions. The population is avowedly anti-sovereigntist, having voted 96.4 per cent against in the 1995 provincial referendum.
Political history
Liberal Lawrence Bergman, a former provincial revenue minister, has enjoyed victory margins in this riding that are the envy of some dictators. Enough said.
