Louis-Joseph Papineau (Beauharnois, Quebec politician)

Louis-Joseph Papineau (French pronunciation: [lwi ʒozɛf papino]; January 3, 1861 – April 24, 1932) was a Canadian politician and lawyer.

He crossed the floor to join the Conservatives and was re-elected in the 1911 federal election.

As a result of the Conscription Crisis of 1917, Papineau crossed the floor yet again to rejoin his old party and was re-elected in the 1917 federal election as a Laurier Liberal.

He was re-elected in 1921, again as a Liberal before retiring from parliament with the 1925 federal election.
