The canton of Lyon-XII was a French canton in the Arrondissement of Lyon and in the Rhône-Alpes region until 2015 . It originally belonged to the Rhône department and covered part of the 8th district (French: 8 e arrondissement ) of Lyon . The canton was abolished when the Métropole de Lyon replaced the Département Rhône as the higher-level regional authority in its catchment area at the turn of 2014/2015 and the cantons lost their function as constituencies. The last representative in the conseil général des Départements was Louis Pelaez ( PRG ), followed by Jean-Louis Touraine ( PS , term of office 2004–2007).
