| Description | This riding is located at the west end of Montreal on the south shore of Rivière-des-Prairies. Most of the riding is made up of the former city of St-Laurent. The riding is bounded by Autoroute des Laurentides in the north, Autoroute Métropolitaine, Boulevard Cavendish, the CN line, Highway 13 and Boulevard de la Côte-Vertu in the east, the limits of the former city of St-Laurent and the boundary between Montreal and Pierrefonds in the south and Rivière-des Prairies in the west.
The riding is highly industrialized and is home to part of Pierre Trudeau Airport, Bombardier's Canadair division and CAE Electronics. The main industry is manufacturing, followed by retail trade. Almost 19 per cent of the population has a university degree. The average family income is $61,355 and unemployment is 10.1 per cent.
According to the 2001 census, the immigrant population is over 46 per cent. Chinese, Italian, Greek and East Indian communities contribute to the ethnic makeup of the riding. According to the 2001 census, only 33 per cent have French as mother tongue and 46 per cent list a language other than French or English. Rentals outnumber homeowners in the riding by 60 per cent.
There was no change in the 2004 redistribution. In the 1986 redistribution, the riding of St-Laurent was created from 51 per cent of Dollard, 22 per cent of Laval-des-Rapides and 12 per cent of St-Denis. The riding name was changed to St-Laurent-Cartierville in 1989. The 1996 redistribution kept all of the existing riding.
