Which of the city’s ridings for the National Assembly of Québec takes in L'Aéroport isn’t known here, as Élections Québec’s map isn’t open for reuse.

The last and next general elections at each level; a by-election can come in between.

| Québec council | 2 November 2025 | 4 November 2029 |

Under the Act respecting elections and referendums in municipalities, Québec’s next municipal vote is on 4 November 2029, the first Sunday in November every four years.

- Council money. Spending by service comes from MAMH’s consolidated 2024 financial report, revenue, debt and reserves from its financial profile, all per resident on MAMH’s population.
- Council size. The council size includes the head of council; the population is the 2021 Census, the whole city’s for a neighbourhood.
- Which riding. Each place is put in its ridings by where its 2021 Census residents live; a riding holding 5% or more of them is listed.
- Election results. Two maps are in play: the 2013 ridings, on which 2019 and 2021 were counted, and the 2023 ridings, onto which Elections Canada transposed the 2021 vote poll by poll.
- Not on this page. Band councils, and what members did once elected: the open record stops at the vote.
- Who holds each seat. Wikidata, edited by volunteers, is the source for each MP, and it can trail a change of seat by a little.
