Manon Jeannotte (French pronunciation: [manɔ̃ ʒanɔt]) is a Canadian civil servant who serves as the 30th and current Lieutenant Governor of Quebec. She assumed the role on January 25, 2024, choosing to be sworn in at her office rather than in the National Assembly of Quebec as is customary.
Jeannotte is a member of the Mi'kmaq First Nation. Following her appointment by the Governor General of Canada, the National Assembly of Quebec unanimously voted a non-binding motion to abolish the position of lieutenant governor, although it specified the motion was not a consequence of Jeannotte's appointment but rather a criticism of the Crown.
