In Quebec, mothers are entitled to 18 weeks of maternity leave with no pay. This time of leave can start, at the earliest, in the 16th week before the expected delivery.[1]
Fathers are entitled to five weeks of paternity leave, which must be taken consecutively, and it can only begin after the birth of the child. This is also without pay.[2]
