Can you drive in Quebec?
If you have a valid driver’s license from your own country, you may drive a car in Quebec without getting a Quebec driver’s license. However, if your driver’s license is not written in either French or English, Quebec’s motor vehicle bureau strongly suggests you get an international driver’s license.
