Harkness, Ross | September 24, 1955 issue

add to cart   close window

What may prove to be the most important social upheaval on the American continent since the Mexican revolution is taking place in Canada's French-language province of Quebec. There is not an element of French-Canadian life that has escaped, but nowhere has the ferment had a more disturbing effect than on education and the church. Universities such as famous old Laval, founded in 1663 by the first Bishop of Quebec, have sacrificed government grants in order to fight for social justice. The article analyzes the political situation of this province and issues related to the problem.
