^This is the preferred spelling according to Hansard, the official record of debates in the House of Commons (e.g.,
39th Parliament, 1st Session - Edited Hansard - Number 085 - November 23, 2006). Also, technically speaking, the commonly accepted English spelling is "Quebecker". The rules of English pronunciation require a "k" after the "c" for a hard sound. In the Oxford Dictionary, "Quebecker" is the only spelling offered (see
Oxford Dictionary Online). The Globe & Mail uses "Quebecker" (see:
Quebeckers' mental Bloc - article by Jeffrey Simpson after the 2008 election; Oct. 18, 2008). It is sometimes spelled "Quebecer" in other newspapers and magazines, such as the Montreal Gazette and Macleans magazine.
