Title
René Lévesque et la communauté juive : entretiens
Abstract
The author reproduces the interview he had with then Quebec Premier René Lévesque on May 31, 1982, on Société Radio-Canada. The interview was part of a series of fourteen one-hour radio programs titled "The Jewish Community of Quebec." The author notes that the coming to power of Lévesque's Parti Québécois caused a shock wave within Montreal's largely Anglophone Jewish community. Relations between the Jewish community and the Lévesque government were often strained. The author sums up the reigning spirit among Quebec's English-speaking Jews in the face of Lévesque's separatist government as feeling threatened in their rights and privileges, but the author blames the English-speaking Jews for "standing on the side of the oppressors" (i.e. Quebec Anglophones) and for "refusing to learn the language of the majority."
