whip adjoint de l'opposition: Terme à privilégier au gouvernement fédéral, sauf lorsqu'on cite la Loi sur le Parlement, qui emploie plutôt le terme «whip suppléant de l'Opposition». Autrement, on réserve généralement l'équivalent «whip suppléant» pour rendre la notion d'«acting whip» et on évite la majuscule à «opposition». 2, record 3, French, - whip%20adjoint%20de%20l%27opposition
