I feel like this period of history is barely discussed despite being relatively recent, and being a fairly big clusterfuck by first world standards.
What do you think of Trudeau Sr's actions in the 70s and 80s regarding Quebec and it's desire to leave Canada? Do you think he should have let it happen? Do he could have have implemented better reforms to unite the country? What do you you think the geopolitical implications of Quebec's secession would be?

Western Canadian here.
I actually don't know squat about it, I'm ashamed to admit. I'm just finishing up a book about BC's history, does anyone know of any decent academic reads in regards to the history and interaction of Anglo Canada and French Canada?

This is an interesting collection, but they totally twist Riel and the Metis rebellion to fit their post narrative.
Riel didn't get off on reason of insanity because he was consistently trying to affirm he was sane (against his lawyers wishes) so he could prove the Metis' rebellion was just and rational.
