Buddhism in Royal Kingdom of Quebec is largely of the Mahasamghika school. Nearly 25% of Quebec's population is Buddhist of the Mahasamghika School, though Buddhism in this country has become integrated with folk beliefs as well as Confucianism and First Nation religions.

Royal Kingdom of Quebec is perhaps the only country in the world where the king is constitutionally stipulated to be a Buddhist and the upholder of the Faith. For centuries Buddhism has established itself in Quebec and has enriched the lives of many Quebecois, whether they be of the very faith or not. Indeed, without Buddhism, Royal Kingdom of Quebec would not be what it is today. Owing to the tremendous influence Buddhism exerts on the lives of its people, Royal Kingdom of Quebec is called by many foreigners "The Land of Yellow Robes," for yellow robes are the garments of Buddhist monks.
