Reflecting its French inheritance, Quebec has a civil code, based on the Code Napoléon, for matters of private law. It is the common law or Anglo-American legal tradition which is behind its administrative and criminal law systems.
Quebec is a hybrid jurisdiction: it applies civil law principles (reflecting its French inheritance) to private relationships while common law tradition guides its administrative and criminal law systems.
