The flag of the Lieutenant-Governor of Quebec

This is a list of viceroys (governors and lieutenant-governors) of the Canadian province of Quebec, before and after Confederation in 1867. For governors preceding the 1759 British conquest, see Governor of New France.

Governors of Quebec from the Conquest to the creation of Lower Canada

Quebec was conquered by the British in 1759.

Lieutenant-Governors of Lower Canada

Lower Canada was created out of the eastern part of Quebec by the Constitutional Act of 1791.

Lord Sydenham was also Governor General of Canada, and united Upper Canada and Lower Canada into the Province of Canada. Lower Canada became Canada East.

Lieutenant-Governors of Canada East

After Richard Downes Jackson, the Lieutenant-Governors were also simultaneously Governors General.

The Province of Canada was split into Ontario and Quebec after Canadian Confederation in 1867.
