Beloeil—Chambly (officially Belœil—Chambly) is a federal electoral district (riding) in Quebec, Canada. It encompasses a portion of Montérégie.

Beloeil—Chambly was created by the 2012 federal electoral boundaries redistribution out of part of Chambly—Borduas.[3] It was legally defined in the 2013 representation order and came into effect upon the call of the 2015 federal election.[4] The name was altered slightly to Belœil—Chambly beginning with the 2025 federal election.[5]

Since 2019, its member of Parliament (MP) has been Yves-François Blanchet, the leader of the Bloc Québécois (BQ).

Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution, it lost Carignan to Mont-Saint-Bruno—L'Acadie.

Profile

The NDP did well against the Bloc in the region in the 2011 election, when results are applied to the new riding's boundaries. There was little variation in support for most parties from one part of the riding to another. In the 2015 federal election, the Bloc saw a slight bump in support, while the Liberals jumped more than 20 percentage points, mostly at the expense of the NDP. In the 2019 election, the Bloc Québécois took control of the seat with a substantial margin, and held onto it in the 2021 election.
