among the new ndp mps were several university students. five members of the mcgill university ndp club—charmaine borg, matthew dubé, mylène freeman, laurin liu, and jamie nicholls—were elected from montreal-area ridings. liu is the youngest woman ever elected to parliament. also elected was pierre-luc dusseault, a freshman at the université de sherbrooke; his victory in sherbrooke, quebec makes him the youngest mp in canadian history (he only turned 20 two days before he was sworn in).
