Saint-Maurice (provincial electoral district)

This article is about the provincial electoral district. For the federal electoral districts, see Saint Maurice (electoral district). For the pre-Confederation electoral district, see Saint Maurice (Province of Canada electoral district).

Saint-Maurice (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ mɔʁis] ⓘ) was a provincial electoral district located in the Mauricie region of Quebec, Canada. It includes part of the city of Shawinigan; it does not, however, include the parish municipality of Saint-Maurice (although it borders on it).

It was created for the 1867 election, and an electoral district of that name existed even earlier: see Saint-Maurice (Lower Canada) and Saint-Maurice (Province of Canada).

In the change from the 2001 to the 2011 electoral map, its territory was unchanged. Following the change in the 2017 electoral map, the riding will be dissolved into the new riding of Laviolette–Saint-Maurice and Maskinongé.
