Question: The representative of Portneuf in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec from 1867 to 1878 was from a province in which country?
Context: This is a list of the Parliaments of the Ontario Legislative Assembly, the legislature of the Canadian province of Ontario, since Canadian Confederation in 1867.  The Legislative Assembly has existed since 1867 when the British North America Act, 1867 severed the Province of Canada into two new provinces, with the portion then called Canada West becoming Ontario.  For the Parliaments prior to Confederation, see Parliament of the Province of Canada (1841 to 1867) and Parliament of Upper Canada (1791 to 1841). The Quebec Legislature (officially Parliament of Quebec, French: "Parlement du Québec" ) is the legislature of the province of Quebec, Canada, since Confederation in 1867.  Today, the legislature is made of two elements: the monarch of Canada, represented by the Lieutenant Governor of Quebec, and the unicameral assembly called the National Assembly of Quebec.  The legislature has existed since 1867 when Quebec, then called Canada East, became one of the founding colonies of Canadian Confederation.  From 1867 until 1968 the legislature was bicameral, containing a lower chamber called the Legislative Assembly of Quebec and an upper chamber called the Legislative Council of Quebec. The Executive Council of Alberta, or more commonly the Cabinet of Alberta, is the Province of Alberta's equivalent to the Cabinet of Canada.  The government of the province of Alberta is a constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy with a unicameral legislature—the Legislative Assembly, which consists of 87 members elected first past the post (FPTP) from single-member constituencies.  The premier is normally a member of the Legislative Assembly, and usually draws the members of Cabinet from among the members of the Legislative Assembly.  The legislative powers in the province however, lie with the Legislative Assembly of Alberta.  Its government resembles that of the other Canadian provinces.  The capital of the province is Edmonton, where the Alberta Legislative Building is located.  Government is conducted after the Westminster model. Joseph Beaudreau (March 17, 1826 – October 5, 1869) was a farmer and political figure in Quebec.  He represented Richelieu in the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada from 1861 to 1863 and again in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec from 1867 to 1869 as a Conservative member. The 28th Legislative Assembly of Quebec / 28th National Assembly of Quebec was the provincial legislature in Quebec, Canada that was elected in the 1966 Quebec general election.  The name change from Legislative Assembly of Quebec to National Assembly of Quebec came into effect on December 31, 1968.  The assembly sat for five sessions, from 1 December 1966 to 12 August 1967; on 20 October 1967 (one day); from 20 February 1968 to 18 December 1968; from 25 February 1969 to 23 December 1969; and from 24 February 1970 to 12 March 1970.  The Union Nationale government was led by Daniel Johnson until his death in office, and then by Jean-Jacques Bertrand.  The Liberal opposition was led by Jean Lesage and then by Robert Bourassa. Praxède Larue (September 2, 1823 – November 29, 1902) was a physician and political figure in Quebec.  He represented Portneuf in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec from 1867 to 1878 as a Conservative. County of Ottawa (French: Compté d'Ottawa ) was a federal and provincial electoral district in Quebec, Canada, which was represented in the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada from 1830 to 1867, in the Canadian House of Commons from 1867 to 1892, and in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec from 1867 to at least 1919. Quebec ( or ; French: "Québec" ] ) is one of the 13 provinces and territories of Canada.  It is bordered to the west by the province of Ontario, James Bay, and Hudson Bay; to the north by Hudson Strait and Ungava Bay; to the east by the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the province of Newfoundland and Labrador; and to the south by the province of New Brunswick and the US states of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and New York.  It also shares maritime borders with Nunavut, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia.  Quebec is Canada's largest province by area and its second-largest administrative division; only the territory of Nunavut is larger.  It is historically and politically considered to be part of Central Canada (with Ontario). The 3rd Legislative Assembly of Quebec was the provincial legislature in Quebec, Canada that existed from July 7, 1875, to May 1, 1878.  The Quebec Conservative Party led by Charles Boucher de Boucherville formed a majority government in the 1875 elections.  de Boucherville was removed from office in 1878 after a conflict with the Lieutenant Governor Luc Letellier de Saint-Just.  The Quebec Liberal Party led by Henri-Gustave Joly de Lotbinière formed a minority government and was the governing party for the first time since the creation of the Legislative Assembly of Quebec.  Lotbinière immediately called an election due to the minority status of his government. Pierre-Étienne Fortin (December 14, 1823 – June 15, 1888) was a Quebec physician and political figure.  He represented Gaspé in the Canadian House of Commons as a Conservative member from 1867 to 1874 and from 1878 to 1887 and also represented Gaspé in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec from 1867 to 1878.  In 1887, he was appointed to the Senate of Canada for Kennebec division.
