Pontiac (formerly known as Pontiac—Gatineau—Labelle) is a federal electoral district in western Quebec, Canada, that has been represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1867 to 1949 and since 1968. From 1980 until 2011 and again in 2015, Pontiac was a bellwether electoral district whose electoral winner also was a member of the winning party. ==History== The electoral district existed over three distinct periods: *It was created by the British North America Act of 1867 which preserved existing electoral districts in Lower Canada. It was redistributed into the new electoral districts of Pontiac—Témiscamingue and Villeneuve in 1947. *In 1966, an electoral district of Pontiac was created from Pontiac—Témiscamingue and parts of Gatineau and Labelle. Then, in 1978, it was renamed "Pontiac—Gatineau—Labelle". *In 2003, the electoral district of Pontiac was created again during a redistribution of the ridings in western Quebec. Pontiac lost territory to Argenteuil—La Petite-Nation and gained territory from Hull—Aylmer and Gatineau during the 2012 electoral redistribution. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pontiac (electoral district)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
