The year 1968 in Canada was an extraordinary one, unlike any other in its frenetic activities and their consequences for the development of a new national consciousness among Canadians. It was a year when decisions and actions, both in Canada and outside its borders, were many and contentious, with momentous and far-reaching effects. Virtually no segment of Canadian life was untouched by the turmoil and the promise of generational change. In this volume of 16 new essays, leading scholars explore major events of 1968 and their effects on Canadian political culture, national identities, social relations, and cultural construction in the half-century that followed.
The first two chapters examine the transformative presence of Pierre Elliott Trudeau, who became both leader of the Liberal Party of Canada and prime minister in 1968. Paul Litt compares the staging of Trudeaumania with the presidential campaign tactics of Robert F. Kennedy, while P. E. Bryden examines how Trudeau quickly revamped the offices of the Prime Minister and the Privy Council.
A second set of chapters moves beyond Trudeau to address five themes that commanded Canadian politics in 1968: Jocelyn Ltourneau reassesses the Quiet Revolution and the birth of separatism; Stephen Azzi captures the New Nationalism in English Canada through the ideas of Walter Gordon and Mel Watkins; Jane Arscott assesses the work of the Royal Commission on the Status of Women on female poverty and violence against women; Michael Temelini locates the intellectual origins of multiculturalism in the seldom-remembered Thinkers Conference; and Andrew Gemmell recounts the work of Indigenous rights activists in the year before the 1969 White Paper.
