Joseph Boutin Bourassa

Joseph Boutin Bourassa, born on November thirteenth, eighteen fifty-three, was a prominent figure in Canadian politics and law. His career as a notary laid a strong foundation for his subsequent political endeavors, showcasing his commitment to public service and legal expertise.

In nineteen eleven, Bourassa made his mark on the political landscape by being elected to the House of Commons of Canada as a member of the Liberal Party, representing the riding of Lévis. His election was a testament to his dedication and the trust placed in him by his constituents.

His political journey continued with re-elections in nineteen seventeen and nineteen twenty-one, where he proudly served as a Laurier Liberal. However, his earlier attempt in nineteen oh-eight to secure a seat in Lévis was met with defeat at the hands of Louis-Auguste Carrier, a setback that did not deter his political aspirations.
