History
The electoral riding of Sainte-Rose was created in 2011, going to the PQ in its first election before voting for Habel in 2014.
The riding’s name is a reference to the old town of Sainte-Rose, which has since become a neighbourhood in the City of Laval.
The town was named after Saint Rose of Lima, a Peruvian woman who was devoted to serving her community and the first saint to be canonized in the new world.
