Our Mission

The Directeur général des élections du Québec and the Commission de la représentation électorale are independent institutions that report directly to the National Assembly.

The mission of the Directeur général des élections du Québec is to oversee the holding of elections and referendums, to ensure compliance with political financing rules, to guarantee the full exercise of election rights, and to promote the democratic values of Québec society.

The mission of the Commission de la représentation électorale is to draw up the electoral map of Québec and, where required, those of municipalities and school boards, by promoting the consultation of citizens and by assuring them fair and equitable representation.
