  • Simon d'Entremont

  • The First Acadian Legislators

    Simon d'Entremont from West Pubnico was elected MLA for Argyle in 1836, one of the first two Acadians to achieve this honour.

    Another Acadian, Frédérique Robicheau (1786-1863), was also elected in Annapolis but was ill and missed the swearing-in ceremony in 1837, making d'Entremont the first Acadian legislator.
