History

The electoral district was created in the British North America Act of 1867 as "Portneuf". It was renamed "Portneuf—Jacques-Cartier" on 1 September 2004.

The Conservative Party did not run a candidate in Portneuf—Jacques-Cartier in the 2008 and 2011 elections as incumbent independent André Arthur was a self-described libertarian who consistently voted with and supported the Conservative Party in the House of Commons.

There were no changes to this riding during the 2012 electoral redistribution.
