Candidates
Brome-Missisquoi: Benoit Trudeau
Benoit Trudeau was a 22-year-old communications student at the Universite du Quebec at the time of the election. He acknowledged he had no chance of winning and said, "I had nothing to lose by running. I didn't want to just sit around in my living room criticizing others." He received 2,037 votes (6.77%), finishing third against Liberal Party incumbent Pierre Paradis.
Fabre: Lucie Jobin
Lucie Jobin received 5,043 votes (12.64%) in the 1994 election, finishing third against Parti Québécois candidate Joseph Facal. The following year, she was the ADQ's representative on a Laval commission established by the provincial government of Jacques Parizeau during the buildup to the 1995 Quebec referendum to explore issues relating to Quebec sovereignty. She refused to sign the committee's final report, accusing the Parti Québécois of distorting its findings to suggest a greater support for Quebec sovereignty than actually existed. She later chaired the Comite de Citoyens de Laval-Ouest.

Why this record matters
The phrase “wikimedia list article” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 5, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q4677190. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1994 and 1995.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
