Damn it, I can't see the LG's flag on this page! -- Denelson 83 03:36, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
I am curious...why does the crest of Quebec (and its representation on the Lieutenant Governor's Standard) still show the Tudor (King's) Crown of King George VI instead of the St. Edward's (Queen's) Crown of the current Monarch, Queen Elizabeth II? I have not seen a photo or drawing of the Quebec crest showing the Queen's Crown. Thank you/Merci. -- MarshallStack 04:28, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Simply, because the Government of Québec has never modified Her Majesty's Coat of Arms in Right of Québec. However, if one looks at the Standard used by the Lieutenant Governor of Québec, one will see the St. Edward's Crown instead of the Tudor Crown, which is used on the Arms of Québec.

Re Lieutenant Governor of Quebec#History. Baie des Chaleurs railway is a very strange link at best. This needs correcting. Peter Horn User talk 02:33, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
Regarding the following passage: "Within Quebec, the lieutenant governor also follows only the sovereign in the province's order of precedence, preceding even other members of the Canadian Royal Family and the Queen's federal representative."
Is this not the case for every province? According to the relevant Wikipedia pages, every province has the Lieutenant Governor second in order of precedence, behind the Sovereign/Queen. The Governor General (the Queen's federal representative) is not relevant to provincial precedence, because in matters of Provincial affairs, she has no legal standing as sovereign representative. There is no mention of the Canadian Royal Family in the official precedence guides for other provinces ( http://novascotia.ca/iga/tableprec.asp).
Further, Canadian heritage does not list members of the Canadian Royal Family other than the Queen as having any precedence ( http://www.pch.gc.ca/pgm/ceem-cced/prtcl/precedence-eng.cfm). The Royal Family appears only to be relevant in military situations, which are never a provincial matter.
Perhaps the above sentence should be amended to "Within Quebec, as in other provinces, the lieutenant governor..."
I have started an RfC on this question at Talk:Governor General of Canada. All comments welcome. -- Mr Serjeant Buzfuz ( talk) 14:34, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
