A few MNAs from the Quebec general election, 2007 don't have articles yet. You can find them by looking for redlinks at 37th National Assembly of Quebec. A list used to be posted here, but is just a duplicate. -- P.T. Aufrette ( talk) 00:55, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
The following comment dates from when the list was still posted here:
Why was this page moved to the French name? Is there a general consensus that Legislures be called by their native names? 68.39.174.238 01:47, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
The National Assembly uses "National Assembly of Quebec" in English, so there is no reason for the English version of Wikipedia to use the French name. See the National Assembly of Quebec website. I have moved the page back. Ground Zero | t 04:27, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

If we go according to the French Language Charter, or bill 101 as it is also called, there is no official English name to anything that concerns the Québec Government. So "English Canada" which includes many english people in Québec can actually call it what ever they want. Also no matter what the official name of the assembly is, it is still a legislative assembly. -- Mrboire ( talk) 14:57, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
In my opinion, the entire sentence should be deleted, as the reference in the one source (the Speaker of the House of Commons website) is insufficient to show that the term remains in any kind of current usage (a random example does not provide evidence of common usage - it only shows that the term has been used once, possibly in error). Moreover, the Speaker's site also incorrectly refers to the Houses of Assembly of Nova Scotia and Newfoundland & Labrador as "Legislative Assemblies", leading me to believe that the source is either not reliable, or it mistakenly uses capital letters when the intent was to use the generic, lower-case, "legislative assembly" to refer to all of the provincial legislatures, regardless of their individual proper names. -- Skeezix1000 ( talk) 16:05, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Personaly I don't beleive that the sentence should be in the paragraph, I was just trying to stop the back and forth undoing of the two parties involved. Yes the National Assembly is a legislative assembly, and yes Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and labrador have legislative assemblies, but are they refered to as the "Legislative Assembly" of X is the question here. I do not know, I have not seen either way. The intro should probably read "NA of Q is the legislative body or assembly ..." I believe that people who do not have full mastery of the language should not edit the encyclopedia, intentions might be honorable but it causes more confusion.-- Mrboire ( talk) 18:30, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
To me the question is the word "national" which does not mean the exact same thing in English and in French. I would like to know if there is an official English version of "assemblee nationale" - a reference to that or an acknowledgement that this is unofficial but standard usage by the Assembly itself would save it from being original research. Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 15:02, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
I removed the following sentence, which had no source and which is furthermore completely inaccurate: "The renaming was a view by separatists has a way to promote sovereignty for the province."
The renaming was proposed, undertaken and ratified by a Federalist government. The Premier of the day, Jean-Jacques Bertrand was an overt Federalist. Moreover, there was not a single PQ member in the Assembly at the time, since the party would not even exist until later that year.
A Wikipedia article is no place for this type of speculation.
And while I was at it, I also deleted this piece of nonsense:
"The Quebecian Broadcasting was formerly the maslow of Quebec's legislature and was then called the Housings of Nation Leg ;standing for Legislation. In 1966, the lower house, the Legislative Council, was demolished by angry citizens and the remaining house was renamed."

Following up on the discussion of the full name of the Assemblée, the Quebec statute uses both "Assemblée nationale" and "Assemblée nationale du Québec." The name of the Act is "Loi sur L’Assemblée nationale", but the implementation clause uses "Assemblée nationale du Québec": "Sa Majesté, de l’avis et du consentement de l’Assemblée nationale du Québec, décrète ce qui suit:". The Act therefore is not determinative. The "Règlement et autres Règles de procédure" ( downloadable here), one of the key documents for the Assembly, also uses both terms: "Assemblée nationale du Québec" at the top of the cover, and "Assemblée nationale" thereafter. Similarly, the National Assembly on its webpages uses "Assemblée nationale du Québec" on the headers, and then "Assemblée nationale" in the text. It seems to me that we should follow that same style: since the Assemblée uses the "Assemblée nationale du Québec" at the beginning of its documents, and "Assemblée nationale" thereafter, we should do the same for this article. However, if it is determined that the official name is "Assemblée nationale", then the same style should be used in English, to match the French style, and the article would have to be re-named: "National Assembly (Quebec)".
