Well that's interesting!
A Québec Conservative, Desrosiers was elected in Châteauguay in the general election held in June 1908. However, his election was contested on November 13 and he lost the resulting by-election to Honoré Mercier Jr. Defeated again by Mercier in the 1912 general election, he never got to sit in the legislative assembly.
