“Mount Louis St-Laurent” was named in 1964 after the Right Honourable Louis St-Laurent (1882-1973), Canada’s sixteenth prime minister, 1948-57. The designation was in keeping with Premier Range protocols, established in 1927.
“St-Laurent” is how the Prime Minister wrote his family name, not “St. Laurent” as frequently seen.
