The post-nominal letters "PC" stand for "Privy Councillor" and are used to indicate Members of the Queen's Privy Council for Canada. This is the (largely ceremonial) body of advisers to the Queen and her viceroy, the Governor General.

People who will commonly have these post-nominal letters are current and former prime ministers, ministers of the Crown, chief justices, and opposition leaders, as well as former governors general, honoured citizens, and members of the Security Intelligence Review Committee.

PC can also be an abbreviation for the former Progressive Conservative Party of Canada, which merged with the Canadian Alliance in 2003 to form the Conservative Party of Canada.
