Quebec's 1970 October Crisis

Gary Arndt | Glassbox Media
About this episode

Canada has a reputation for being a rather low-key, friendly place. 

For the most part, this is true. It is a nice place to visit and is never usually that controversial. 

However, that hasn’t always been the case. Fifty years ago, Canadians faced the threat of extremism and terrorism, and it almost broke the country apart.

Learn more about Quebec’s October Crisis of 1970 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
