The district was created in 1947 from parts of Hull and Wright ridings. In 1987, it was renamed to Chapleau, and then to Gatineau—La Lièvre in 1988. It was renamed back to "Gatineau" in 1996.
Assad represented Gatineau—La Lièvre from 1988 to 1997 which was known as Chapleau from 1987 to 1988. This district had similar borders to Gatineau.
PoliticsEdit
Like most ridings in the Outaouais, Gatineau had long been safe for the Liberals, save for a lone Progressive Conservative victory in their 1984 nationwide landslide. Even as the rest of Quebec turned its back on the Liberals, a large number of civil servants who worked in Ottawa kept it in Liberal hands.
However, in the 2006 election the Bloc Québécois won the seat. The Bloc managed to hold the seat with just over 29% of the vote in 2008, by far the lowest percentage for a winning candidate nationwide, due to a near-three-way split between themselves, the New Democratic Party and the Liberals. The riding was swept up in the massive NDP wave that swept through the province in the 2011 election.
In the 2015 election, Liberal candidate Steve MacKinnon, running a second time, defeated NDP incumbent Françoise Boivin in an upset with an almost 40-point swing.
