Created for the 2015 election through the redistribution of Quebec's federal ridings, Vimy drew most of its territory from the former Laval riding with smaller portions from Laval—Les Îles and Alfred-Pellan. Located on the island city of Laval, north of Montreal across the Rivière des Prairies, the riding covered established residential sectors including Pont-Viau, Laval-des-Rapides, Renaud-Coursol, and portions of Auteuil and Vimont.
Candidates
Eva Nassif (Liberal) — Born in Lebanon, Nassif had worked as a registered nurse at the American University Hospital in Beirut before immigrating to Canada in 1993. She later earned a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in translation from Concordia University and worked as a certified translator, terminologist, and teacher for the Laval school board. She had previously run as the Liberal candidate in the former Laval riding in 2011.
France Duhamel (NDP) — Duhamel ran as the NDP candidate in the newly created riding.
Barek Kaddouri (Bloc Québécois) — Kaddouri campaigned on railway safety, banking fee reductions, and social housing. He won the Bloc's local nomination to contest the new riding.
Anthony Mavros (Conservative) — Mavros represented the Conservative Party in this Laval riding.
About the Riding
Laval was formed in 1965 through the merger of fourteen municipalities on Île Jésus. The sectors within Vimy reflected different eras of suburban development — Pont-Viau and Laval-des-Rapides date to the postwar housing boom, while Auteuil and Vimont saw expansion through the 1970s and 1980s. By 2015, the riding's population was ethnically diverse, with significant communities of Middle Eastern, North African, and Caribbean origin alongside the francophone majority. The Laval economy centred on commercial zones along the autoroute corridors, the Carrefour Laval shopping complex, and the pharmaceutical and biotech firms clustered in the city's industrial parks. Transit access — particularly the extension of the Montreal Metro's orange line to Laval in 2007 — remained important to commuters travelling to Montreal for work.
