The 2025 Terrebonne provincial by-election was held on March 17, 2025.[1] It was triggered after the resignation of Pierre Fitzgibbon from the National Assembly of Quebec.[2]
Constituency
The main settlement in the seat is the city of Terrebonne, a suburb on the North Shore of Montreal.[3]
Once a stronghold of the Parti Québécois (PQ), Terrebonne was first won by Pierre Fitzgibbon for the Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) in the 2018 Quebec general election.[3]
Representation
The by-election is considered a test of leadership for Premier François Legault.[3] A major issue is the United States trade war with Canada and Mexico.[4]
