Bien que l'usage français préconise la minuscule pour les titres de poste, la majuscule à Président et à Présidente est obligatoire dans les documents concernant les délibérations de la Chambre des communes et du Sénat, car elle permet de faire la distinction entre le Président de chacune de ces chambres et les présidents des comités. Pour ce qui est de «monsieur», toujours dans le contexte des délibérations parlementaires, il s'écrit au long lorsque l'on s'adresse directement à la personne et ne prend la majuscule que s'il est situé au début de la phrase. 2, record 3, French, - monsieur%20le%20Pr%C3%A9sident
