Ministry of Culture and Communications (Quebec)

Edifice Guy-Fregault, in Quebec City, where the ministry is located

The Ministry of Culture and Communications (French: Ministère de la Culture et des Communications, pronounced [ministɛʁ la kyltyʁ e de kɔmynikasjɔ̃]) is responsible for promoting and protecting the culture in the Canadian province of Quebec. The current minister, since 2022, is Mathieu Lacombe.

The ministry was formed in 2012 after the immigration portfolio was transferred from the former Minister of Immigration and Cultural Communities, created in 2005, to the new Ministry of Immigration, Diversity and Inclusion. Since 1 April 2017, the Ministry of Culture and Communications also administers Quebec's provincial film classification rating system, acquired from the former Régie du cinéma.
