Bloc Québécois candidate Luc Désilets is the projected winner in the riding of Rivière-des-Mille-Îles.
Rivière-des-Mille-Îles is a federal electoral district in Quebec that is located on the north bank of Rivière des Mille-Îles near the city of Laval.
The Bloc Québécois held the seat from the riding’s creation in 1996 until 2011, when 20-year-old NDP candidate Laurin Liu won the election as the so-called orange wave swept Quebec.
The riding then went to Liberal Linda Lapointe in 2015.
Luc Desilets beat out Lapointe in 2019, bringing the riding back to the Bloc.
Desilets won with roughly 42 per cent of the vote.
