Does Quebec have a national anthem?
First written by an American, edited by a Canadian: As with any country's national anthem, standing and taking your hat off is appropriate. This is a simple and respectful gesture for ANY national anthem or flag. You are not required to salute or make any similar gesture, but a simple respectful acknowledgment is part of being polite to citizens of other nations. For citizens of most nations, the etiquette for the national anthem is to stand, salute (if in uniform), place your hand over your heart (if civilian), or similar. It is unnecessary to place your hand over your heart in Canada but the rest is appropriate as well. It is also rather inappropriate to do anything but these things when the anthem is played officially. It is regarded as rude in some countries to sing along with the national anthem but in Canada it is not and contrarily, in elementary schools it often necessary to sing along the anthem so that children will memorize the words.

Canadians do not, as a rule, sing God Save the Queen except for when the Monarch is actually present in the room...which is rare, indeed.

Can the national anthem be played twice in the course of one day at a double-header or back to back basketball games?
Proper protocol is to only play the anthem one time at a sporting event. In a baseball double header the anthem is only played once unless it is a split day night event. In that case it is treated as 2 different events. I've been to a number of NCAA tourney double headers and the anthem was only played at the beginning of the first game. Sure the anthem can be played twice bit it shouldn't.

When do you capitalize the French national anthem?
The French national anthem is titled "La Marseillaise," and it should be capitalized because it is a proper noun. When referring to the anthem in writing, both the title and the first letter of each significant word should be capitalized. For example, you would write "La Marseillaise" when mentioning the anthem. Additionally, in general discussions, you would capitalize "French national anthem" as it specifies a particular anthem.
