Untitled[edit]

There is a mention in this article that the Archbishop Joseph Charbonneau was asked by the Duplessis government to be transferred but the Church refused. The french article on Joseph Charbonneau says that on the contrary the Church did comply with Duplessis's request and did send the priest to British Columbia in 1950... I Think this should be corrected. Capbat 15:10, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm...sounds like the canadian homestead strike.

Should there be some discussion of Ledoux and the appaling health situation caused by the asbestos dust? --Lastexpofan 05:43, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

significance to quiet revolution[edit]

I don't get it... if the miner's strike had the sympathy of the catholic church and the general public, what's the connection with the secularization of the quiet revolution? - 70.71.154.237 08:12, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I think the Church was targeted by Trudeau et als because it protected the culture and ethnicity of the French-Canadians. The lawful Constitution of Canada, established in 1867, also does this by instituting federalism. This gives each of the founding peoples of Canada an exclusive Legislature and the power to make laws to preserve and cause their own culture to flourish. Trudeau, Pelletier and Marchand were in fact Communists who wanted a Soviet-style "pluralist" state; this, of course, conflicts with the ideals of the Constitution, and the 400-year-old practice of the Church in protecting the interests of the French Canadians.

In order to destroy the lawful Constitution of Canada so as to replace it with multiculturalism, also called pluralism, the French Canadians had to be pried loose from the protection of the Church; and then used to vote in referendums to destroy the rest of the country.

The so-called "Quiet Revolution" was literally the overthrow of the Church; and the economic remodelling of Quebec using hydroelectricity -- because the otherwise largely rural culture of French Canadians did not make them look like very convincing candidates for "independence", and Quebec had to be made viable for the sake of appearances in a referendum. It is important to note that in both 1980 and 1995, the question on the referendum ballot had nothing to do with "seceding" -- it sought a "mandate to negotiate" (with the federal government) a new form of government for ALL of Canada -- something close to Trudeau's heart, multiculturalism. This is the literal disenfranchisement of the founding peoples of Canada, who under that new system have no rights at all. Multiculturalism is a kind of ethnic "affirmative action" which seeks to employ, house and integrate foreigners at the expense of the locals, and in preference to them. Public schools in Canada are commandeered to teach the ideologies that underpin multiculturalism. Canadians literally have no public schools to raise their own kids as Canadian. Canadian is not merely a label to GPS you on a map; the Canadians have been here sometimes for 3-400 years, and considered themselves as "peoples". So, to accomplish the overthrow of the Constitution of Canada, Quebec had to be modernized in the Quiet Revolution, groomed and used to blackmail the rest of Canada into abandoning its own rights and existence.

But, it doesn't end there. The goal is to eliminate three national borders in North America and merge Canada, the USA and Mexico, totally mixing the populations and finishing off all three countries and their constitutions, forever. The intent is to govern by "regionalism", which is communism, with regional governance under a world government. Check online for the UNPA, and you'll see they're doing it, they're working on it. That's the petition for an elected assembly at the UN -- a "world government" in which the peoples of the world get a useless vote, and the fascists get to run things.

Have a nice day.

Demands of the miners[edit]

I was under the impression that one of the demands of the miners was co-ownership (socialist style) of the mines. Does anyone know?
