Title
'It used to be about the kids': Nutrition Reform and the Montreal Protestant School Board
Abstract
The nutrition programs that developed in Montreal's English Protestant schools during the 1970s attest to a deepening awareness of child and adolescent welfare. The author points out that the combination of grassroots activism and government support that brought about these initiatives took place in the context of post-Quiet Revolution Quebec when Montrealers were grappling with the role that the newly activist provincial government should play in social life.
