The '60s and '70s are an era of ferment on the political, cultural, and personal levels. Quebec's Quiet Revolution and youth movements across North America challenge the status quo. Some events bring the country together: a new flag is introduced and Canada shines in the world's spotlight with Expo '67. Others cause considerable upheaval: growing calls for Quebec sovereignty, the 1970 FLQ/War Measures Act crisis, and an energy shortage that pits East against West. A charismatic young law professor is elected Liberal leader, than Prime Minister; Trudeaumania changes the face of Canadian politics.
