Québec (formerly known as Langelier) is a federal electoral district that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 1988. It is located in Quebec City in the province of Quebec, Canada.
The main employer in the district is the provincial Government of Quebec.
The riding, in the Quebec region of Capitale-Nationale, consists of the central part of Quebec City, including the borough of La Cité and the southern part of the borough of Les Rivières, as well as the parish municipality of Notre-Dame-des-Anges.
The neighbouring ridings are Louis-Hébert, Louis-Saint-Laurent, Charlesbourg—Haute-Saint-Charles, Beauport—Limoilou, and Bellechasse—Les Etchemins—Lévis.
The riding gained a small fraction of territory from Louis-Hébert as a result of the 2012 electoral redistribution.
This riding was created as "Langelier" riding in 1966 from parts of Quebec East, Quebec South and Quebec West ridings. It was renamed "Québec" in 1990. Since its inception, this riding has always been represented by the party with the most support in Quebec.
