Interesting you should bring up the comparison between the FLQ and the IRA. This is something that we began discussing early in the research process, and if you go back to our first Open Source post, with the mapping exercise, you'll see this picture posted (http://praxistheatre.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Quebec-Politics-Photo.jpg) where we laid out some possible comparisons, such as the IRA to the FLQ, and CIA actions to those of the RCMP. The IRA is a great example in our debate of freedom fighter vs. terrorist. Are they freedom fighters if we can relate to them... if we know people involved, and terrorists if they fall outside of our frame of reference? What are you thoughts? Glad you're interested in this process Bridget... and great idea about the listserv. I'll be in touch! Hi Mary! Interesting you should bring up the comparison between the FLQ and the IRA.

Has anyone shared it yet on the Canadian Drama listserv? I think there are academics and others on that listserv that would be very interested in this process. Contact me and I'll forward you the info. Bridget (bmac) Hey guys, this process is fascinating. Has anyone shared it yet on the Canadian Drama listserv?

Just keep me in the loop because I find this process fascinating & informative. The FLQ/ Rene Levesque period was between my 2 arrivals in Canada. The perspective in England was very one sided...it was an evil plot against the status quo. However, this reminds me more about the IRA and Northern Ireland ( Brits Vs.the evil Irish). IRA...were they freedom fighters or terrorists? What were they originally? How did they become "terrorists?" Delighted to get your “sharing”…but, probably not much good at making suggestions.
