This article presents the Quebec French adaptation of the Consensus Auditory-Perceptual Evaluation of Voice (CAPE-VFQ), a standardised protocol for evaluating voice quality. Developed through collaboration within the Quebec Voice Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) Community of Practice, the adapted tool addresses linguistic and cultural nuances specific to Quebec French. This adaptation ensures standardised assessments and harmonises clinical and research practices across the province. The article outlines the iterative development process, including clinician feedback, and describes ongoing efforts to validate and support the use of the Quebec French CAPE-V in clinical settings. The adapted protocol serves as both a clinical tool and a reference point for future research, promoting reliable and culturally relevant voice assessments.
