If you mean the form of government, that would be a Constitutional Monarchy. The Queen doesn't rule directly so the system has evolved. The functions of the Sovereign, Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada, and known in Quebec as the Queen in Right of Quebec, are exercised by the Lieutenant Governor of Quebec. The Lieutenant Governor is appointed by the Governor General of Canada on the recommendation of the Prime Minister of Canada, in consultation with the Premier of Quebec.

The Government of Quebec refers to the provincial government of the province of Quebec. As all Canadian provinces, Quebec, is governed by a unicameral legislature, the National Assembly of Quebec, which operates in the Westminster system of government (a style based on the British form of parliament). The political party that wins the largest number of seats in the legislature normally forms the government, and the party's leader becomes Premier of the province.

In essence, we vote in the local representative, who are members of parties. The leader of the party with the most votes become the Premier (Prime Minister) and he selects the members of his cabinet who become the heads of the provinces various departments. In the parliamentary system, the executive power is accountable to the Parliament, so the government stays in power so long as it has the confidence of Parliament (the National Assembly).
