Elections

When Terrebonne votes

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

ElectionLastNext
Terrebonne council2 November 20254 November 2029
National Assembly of Québec5 October 2026–

The open federal catalogue ends at 2021; the 2025 results sit on elections.ca under terms that bar commercial use. The National Assembly of Québec was last elected on 5 October 2026, and the House of Commons on 28 April 2025. Councils are elected on the first Sunday in November every four years, says the Act respecting elections and referendums in municipalities, so Terrebonne votes next on 4 November 2029.

How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • Council money. MAMH’s 2024 financial report, consolidated: charges by service, with revenue, debt and reserves from the financial profile, per resident with MAMH’s own population.
  • Council size. The 2021 Census population is shared over all council seats, including the head of council’s, for this ratio.
  • Which riding. A riding is listed when 5% or more of the place’s 2021 Census residents live in it; the largest share comes first.
  • 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. The open files end at election night: no council votes since, and no band councils.
  • 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.
