Episode description

<p>In October 1970, the Front de libération du Québec (FLQ) sparked a nationwide crisis by kidnapping British diplomat James Cross and Quebec Deputy Premier Pierre Laporte, whom they later murdered. In return for Cross, the FLQ issued seven demands, one of which was to broadcast its manifesto. CBC/Radio-Canada complied. <em>IDEAS</em> examines the impact and legacy of the manifesto, and its relevance today. <em>*This episode originally aired on October 13, 2020.</em></p>
