Later still, QC evolved as the second two-letter non-punctuated abbreviation, making Quebec's abbreviation consistent with other provinces insofar as using letters solely from the name of the province, but not the word "province", as PQ did.

Canadian (and other North American Numbering Plan) telephone numbers are usually written as (NPA) NXX-XXXX.
