About Roland Richer
- Roland Richer (born June 23, 1941) is a Canadian politician, who was a Parti Québécois member of the National Assembly of Quebec for Argenteuil electoral district from 2012 to 2014 Richer was formerly a schoolteacher and school principal.
- He was elected in a by-election held on June 11, 2012, which was triggered by the resignation of David Whissell on December 16, 2011, in a close race against Quebec Liberal Party candidate Lise Proulx.
- The result of the by-election was considered a surprise, as Argenteuil had been a safe seat for the Quebec Liberal Party for several decades.
- Coalition Avenir Québec candidate Mario Laframboise came in third. Richer was reelected in the 2012 general election, again defeating Proulx and Laframboise.
