The National Order of Quebec, termed officially in French as l'Ordre national du Québec, and in English abbreviation as the Order of Quebec, is an order of merit in the Canadian province of Quebec. Instituted in 1984 when Lieutenant Governor Jean-Pierre Côté granted royal assent to the Loi sur l'Ordre national du Québec (National Order of Quebec Act),[1][2] the order is administered by the Governor-in-Council and is intended to honour current or former Quebec residents for conspicuous achievements in any field,[2] being thus described as the highest honour in Quebec.[3] In 1986, the order was expanded to include honorary membership for people outside Quebec.[4]
