Louis-Saint-Laurent (French pronunciation: [lwi sɛ̃ loʁɑ̃]) 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 Portneuf and Quebec East ridings.
The riding, in the Quebec region of Capitale-Nationale, consists of the northwestern part of Quebec City, including parts of the boroughs of Laurentien, Les Rivières, and La Haute-Saint-Charles, along with the Wendake Indian reserve and the city of L'Ancienne-Lorette.
The neighbouring ridings are Portneuf—Jacques-Cartier, Charlesbourg—Haute-Saint-Charles, Québec, and Louis-Hébert.
The riding lost a small fraction of territory to Charlesbourg—Haute-Saint-Charles and gained a small fraction from Louis-Hébert during the 2012 electoral redistribution.
