Title
Language Policies and Independence Politics in Québec
Abstract
The author examines the twenty years of "muscular" linguistic legislation and "referendamania" in Quebec between the 1970s and the 1990s which sometimes dominated the discourse on linguistic planning. He defends the hypothesis that, paradoxically, Quebec needs Quebec Anglophones for French to survive in the province (and in Canada).
