Lieutenant Governor of Quebec

The Lieutenant Governor of Quebec is the Queen’s representative in the province, acting as a ceremonial figurehead and symbol of government authority. They perform constitutional duties such as opening the legislature, giving royal assent to laws, and representing Quebec at official events. The position is largely ceremonial, with real legislative power exercised by elected officials. The Lieutenant Governor is appointed by the Governor General of Canada on the advice of the provincial government and serves as a link between the monarchy and Quebec’s institutions.
