According to the Gage Canadian Dictionary, the Canadian Oxford Dictionary and the Robert & Collins English-French, the correct spelling is "reviser" (none even mention the spelling "revisor"). The Translation Bureau supports these dictionaries, but the spelling "revisor" is used in Quebec's electoral legislation. 3, record 1, English, - board%20of%20revisors
