1. The Quebec Taxi Rate Explained Simply
Officially Set
The Quebec taxi rate was officially set on January 1, 2023. Taxi tariffs in Canada are officially set by cities or districts. The taxi tariff Quebec was last set in January 2023 and published in the official tariff ordinance.

How the fare is made up under the Quebec taxi rate:
The Quebec taxi tariff outlines how taxi fares are calculated for trips within the city. The fare you pay depends on the time of day your ride takes place. Charging is separated into two periods: day and night.
During the day, from 5:00 am to 11:00 pm, your ride begins with a base fare of $4.10. After the base fare, there is an additional charge of $2.05 for each kilometer traveled. If you are waiting in the taxi, such as during traffic or while the vehicle is stationary, the waiting time is charged at a rate of $39.00 per hour.
At night, from 11:00 pm to 5:00 am, the base fare increases to $4.70. For each additional kilometer you travel during the night period, the cost is $2.35. The waiting time at night is priced at $44.00 per hour.
The taxi tariff of Quebec is designed to provide a clear and straightforward pricing structure. At the end of your ride, the total fare will reflect the base fare, the distance traveled, and any waiting time based on the period when your trip took place. This ensures transparency for all passengers using taxi services in Quebec.
