The '''deputy premier of Quebec''' ([[French language|French]]: ''Vice-premier ministre du Québec'' (masculine) or ''Vice-première ministre du Québec'' (feminine)), is the deputy head of government in [[Quebec]].

There was no deputy premier until July 1960.

In the 1960s, the post was sometimes referred to as the vice president of the [[Executive Council of Quebec|Executive Council]].

The post has been temporarily vacant twice: after the death of Premier [[Daniel Johnson, Sr.]] when the incumbent deputy premier, [[Jean-Jacques Bertrand]], became premier; and after the death of Deputy Premier [[Pierre Laporte]]. Besides Bertrand, two other deputy premiers, [[Bernard Landry]] and [[Pauline Marois]], later became premier, though both did so some years after their tenure as deputy premier had ended. The longest serving deputy Premier was Lise Bacon at 8 years and 30 days. While Michelle Courchesne was the shorter serving at 4 months 5 days. Out of 22 deputy Premiers 10 have been women. The current Deputy Premier is Geneviève Guilbault of the CAQ and was sworn in on October 18, 2018.
