Jonquière—Alma

Jonquière—Alma is a federal electoral district in Quebec, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 2004.

It was created in 2003 from parts of Jonquière and Lac-Saint-Jean—Saguenay ridings.

It consists of:

  • the borough of Jonquière in the City of Saguenay,
  • the City of Alma in the Regional County Municipality of Lac-Saint-Jean-Est, and
  • the municipalities of Bégin, Larouche, Saint-Ambroise, Saint-Charles-de-Bourget and Saint-David-de-Falardeau in the Regional County Municipality of Le Fjord-du-Saguenay.

The neighbouring ridings are Roberval—Lac-Saint-Jean and Chicoutimi—Le Fjord.

This riding is distinctive for having the lowest Liberal vote percentage in the country in the 2006 election, at only 3.1.

This riding was dissolved into Jonquière and Lac-Saint-Jean during the 2012 electoral redistribution.
